text: Last Patriot, the Bureau of Labor Statistics does indeed publish other forms of the "under employment rate" to reflect not only unemployed but also those able-bodied persons who don't work or are employed in part-time positions for economic reasons. Look up U9 Unemployment Rate in Google and you'll find that for the entire nation on the St. Louis FED website. I'm not sure, however, if this particular statistic is published on the state level.
