'The shortfall between actual real GDP and potential GDP decreases as the unemployment rate rises: increases as the unemployment rate rises_ increases as the employment rate rises_ decreases as the labor force increases'

"8. After experiencing a recession for the past two years, the residents of Albernia were looking forward to a decrease in the unemployment rate. Yet after six months of strong positive economic growth, the unemployment rate has fallen only slightly below what it was at the end of the recession. How can you explain why the unemployment rate did not fall as much although the economy was experiencing strong economic growth? (Hint: Reread the For Inquiring Minds box 0n Okun's law for help with answering this question.)"
