be wowed by the announced huge increase in job openings...
OR
read Daniel@Atlantic's thoughts, look at his chart
and read his article.

The yellow line represents the number of Americans "officially" unemployed, according to BLS. But the red line shows those jobless Americans plus number of people who BLS says want a job, but don't technically qualified as being unemployed, due to reasons such as discouragement. While the gap between the yellow line and green line (openings) looks bad, if you consider the red line, it looks much worse. In February, 6.5 people wanted a job for every opening.
