    I don’t understand. The amount of people not in work, I guess is used to look about how taxes relate overall population to workers. That’s important, there is useful information in there.

    But like what you are saying that why unemployment figures are used and not number of people in work. Number of people not in work is more of a newspaper headline than anything governments look at.
