Jobless Claims Not-Seasonally-Adjusted Still Far In Excess Of Bush Era Levels

The current level annualized represents 18.5 million claims per year, far in excess of the best actual levels under Bush which were in the 16 million range.

Obama's best year for claims was in 2013 when actual not-seasonally-adjusted claims fell to 17.75 million.
