I understand that if you're already unemployed that the rate is 100%. In order for the rate to fall to 25%, three of your friends would have to get jobs. Seems unlikely to me.

Perhaps someone can tell "Run" nearly all stock is issued without paper certificates.

...worse than that - the actual paper is held by the Fed. Reserve subsidiary called the Depository Trust Company, not even by your broker!!! It's part of the 'assets' which back up the governments debt. The "book entry" system is yet another scheme to ultimately screw the American public. Foreign holders of USA debt instruments love this setup however.

How far can the eye see trickery and/or deceit? Seems like it would be, by definition, pretty hard to see.
