I am telling you that that number is low because it excldes all people laid off by companies where less than 50 people are laid off. But I know it is not one million as the number of employed only dropped 800k from Sept to Dec on 2001 and there is no way all of those are related to 9/11. Below is a link to look at the numbers employed and unemployed by month all the way back to 1994.
