Original Note:
Of the 5.5M 'Bürgergeld' recipients, 1.5M are not employable (e.g. children) and 1.7M are already included in the official unemployment number of 2.8M (6%). Thus, you can only add the remaining 2.3M (not 5.5M), resulting in a 'real unemployment number' of 5.1M (~11%). https://de.statista.com/statistik/daten/studie/666712/umfrage/leistungsempfaenger-von-arbeitslosengeld-ii-und-sozialgeld-im-monat-in-deutschland/ https://statistik.arbeitsagentur.de/SiteGlobals/Forms/Suche/Einzelheftsuche_Formular.html?queryResultId=null&pageNo=0&topic_f=gemeinde-arbeitslose-quoten https://www.arbeitsagentur.de/en/financial-support/citizens-benefits
