Forum Column - By Kenneth J. Theisen - California's official unemployment rate as of August was 6.6 percent, or 1,157,500 Californians looking for a job but not able to obtain one. The current national unemployment rate is 6.1 percent. These figures reflect the failure of our economy to provide employment for millions of workers during a financial downturn. What they don't reflect is the large number of less-educated young men who remain unemployed even in so-called boom times.
