Employment

Isn't is just great that I finally finish my higher education when the U.S. is in the worst economic state since the Great Depression? Gee Anna, your timing is perfect.

Every time I set out to find a job, and I have taken that trip 3 or 4 times a week, I end up on a dead end street. Or I end up in another country, another state, and that my friends, is not an option for me unless the opportunity was great enough to justify a move. The unemployment rate is over 10% in America right now. Actually, the unemployment rate is much higher if you count the discouraged workers who aren't looking anymore. Or if you count the self-employed who don't look for a job, but their income is decreasing (real estate agents for example). Those things and more considered, the unemployment rate must be close to 25%.

It is sensational, the current state of affairs in America today, it is quite sensational.
