Top three countries with high unemployment Rate:
France (7.5), India (7.1) and USA (6.5)
However, you may not like the comparision, as this is not apple to apple comparision. I am trying to compare unemployment rate of US in 2008 with unemployment rate of France and India (along with other countries France and India have their unemployment data reported in 2007). I could not get the current (Oct 2008) Unemployment data for these countries.
Unemployment rate in US was in 4.x in 2007 but as of Oct 2008, its at 6.5%(so far nearly 1.2 million jobs lost in 2008).
If anyone can give current (Oct/Nov 2008) unemployment figures of all the countries, then I will highly appreciate.
Open for comments.
