The numbers speak for themselves but a few are very interesting/surprising.
- Almost half of the Charedim who work, work for the government in some form (mostly in education).
- The average Charedi income is half of the general population average and that needs to support a much larger family and more then half of Charedim are considered poor
- The army numbers are unbelievable 85% vs 6.8% says it all

i bet that it is the charaidi sefardim that are teaching in government funded shas schools. Outside of that the number of charaidim working is close to null.-which is not so bad if you have ever encountered a charid man behind a desk. I don't understand why this is but in general unless he perceives you to be part of his group then instead of doing his job he will try to do as little as possible to help you. he perceives everyone outside of his group as the enemy--especially America Jews.
The glass is either half empty or half full.
If you consider that that aim of the Chareidi leadership is 0% in the left column of your table for every entry except "Percet poor" where they're aiming for 100% these numbers are quite good.
