As usual there is no mention of minimum wage increase to $7.25/hr in 2009; that couldn’t be a factor in high youth unemployment, academic studies like that of new WH chief economic adviser Krueger have proved that.

There are a lot of free online classifieds.

I need someone to wax my cars My arthritis bother me with all that polishing, be glad to pay $40 bucks to get the job done right and I will supply the polish. I have gutters that need cleaning and a ditch I need to be cut.

I wonder if any of them think to place a free ad.

This is a national tragedy.

I was walking with my neighbor the other morning in the park and you should have seen all the 50 somethings there, male and female and couples.

No one, but no one is getting hired.

I'm sorry to hear of Frannie's predicament, but it is no wonder to me.

"Why, in America they haven't spoken it in yeeers."


"Francis Murillo, 21, had a job this summer, putting her in the minority for her age group."

Y'see, Frances, the girl is spelled with an 'E', not an 'I'.

The 'I' is for the male, Francis, whereas the 'E' is the female. Frances.

Soooo .. good luck getting a job in an illiterate society, Frannie.

Those slightly older workers then grab jobs below their education and skill level that younger workers could have taken, keeping the youth unemployed.

I'm not sure about that but at just about every fast food restaurant in my area it seems as if fluency in Spanish is a prerequisite for a managers job.

Are the military branches not recruiting any more? The military is not for everyone but it could be an option. With a college degree of just about any sort, you are eligible to become an officer. High school diplomas will get you in the door as an enlisted person.

To me, it would be a better option than sitting in your parent’s basement moaning about the inability to get a job but that’s just me. As an 18 year old high school graduate, I couldn’t find a decent job and had no means to go to college, so I enlisted for 4 years, I’ve never regretted it, the experience was invaluable. Of course that was a long time ago. Perhaps the military is different now, I don’t know that I’d be so eager to do it with queers taking over.
