    D. None of the above are considered unemployed.

    Unemployment is defined by the Bureau of Labor Statistics as people who do not have a job, have actively looked for work in the past four weeks, and are currently available for work.

    All three of them cannot be considered unemployed because:

    1) Nick is on strike which means he is voluntarily not working

    2) Beth is not finding a job and instead returned to school

    3) Jack feels hopeless and does not search for jobs
