As President Obama prepares to deliver his State of the Union address, 13 million people still want to find work but can’t. An additional 10 million aren’t working as many hours as they’d like to or have given up even looking for a job. Corporate profits have soared to nearly $2 trillion a year, a record high. This is the true state of the union, economically.
