Under what condition would an increase in the unemployment rate be a positive sign?

When discouraged workers become more optimistic and start trying to find work again.

Hope this helped :)

so, based on the research i've done. the u.s. government were always on a wild goose chase just to take down castro. he then retired his trone to his brother raul in 2008 due to some health issues. so it's obvious your answer would be:

castro had no allies from which he could receive aid.

hope this and have a fantastic day!
