This disturbing graphic, by Latoya Eguwuekwe , charts the rise of unemployment across the U.S. from 2007 on. (Hat tip to Daily Kos , which posted it earlier this month.)

Displayed below is a time-lapse look at the so-called U3 unemployment statistic, which doesn't account for the underemployed and those who've simply given up looking for work. The graphic was last updated on July 15.
