Actually, I'm surprised US unemployment isn't HIGHER for youth: The fact is, the EU simply has very few youths since procreation has become unfashionable. In contrast the US population between the ages of 18-25 is booming.
This unemployment rate only includes people actually looking for jobs.
The ones who are staying in school longer and/or living with mom and dad are not included if they aren't looking.
No wonder ObamaCare extends parental health care insurance coverage to those who are 26. The economy is not creating enough jobs for them to be self-sufficient (which is going to make SS and Medicare insolvency even worse).
