Jobless

Unemployment is a term for people who do not work at all, are looking for work, or someone who is trying to get a decent job. Unemployment
is usually caused because the number of the workforce or job seekers is not proportional to the number of jobs available. Unemployment is
often a problem in the economy, because with unemployment, people's productivity and income will decrease, which can cause poverty and
other social problems.

The unemployment rate can be calculated by comparing the number of unemployed with the total workforce expressed as a percentage. The
absence of income causes the unemployed to reduce their consumption expenditure, which causes a decrease in the level of prosperity and
welfare. Prolonged unemployment can also have negative psychological effects on the unemployed and their families. An unemployment rate
that is too high can also cause political, security and social chaos, thus disrupting economic growth and development. The long-term
consequence is a decline in a country's GNP and per capita income.
