Any One Need a Job?
If you are looking and can't find one, join the club! This increasing trend of unemployment is becoming more of an epidemic and not a trend. "New claims for state unemployment benefits rose to 312,000 in the week ended Feb. 19 from a revised 303,000 the prior week." While the president is addressing issues in his agendas concerning national security and social security, the unemployment rate is being ignored. In the presidential election in 2004, both canidents addressed the problem and promised to propose solutions. Now that Bush has taken the oath again...Where is the solution. The economy is rebounding for the most part, but people are still looking for jobs. This is an immediate problem and I feel strongly this issue needs to be addressed. "In a sign that hiring may be picking up, the number of people still on unemployment fell for the second week in a row, dropping 62,000 to 2.65 million in the week ended Feb. 12, the latest numbers available." I hope that the signs continue to be promising and people looking for jobs can find them. I am graduating in a year and I want to be able to get a job, how about you?
