Some International Unemployment Rates And Inflation Rates

We've been covering these topics in macro the last couple of weeks. I took data from a couple of OECD websites (links at the end of the post) and consolidated them. Click here to go to the link I created. The first table has unemployment rates for many countries from 2000-14. The second table has inflation rates from 2011-14. For inflation, I put any rates of 6% or higher in red. Generally, inflation rates have been low recently.

Here is an unemployment comparison for recent years between the USA and the European Union. The USA had 6.2% in 2014. The EU had 10.2%.
