Unemployment Hits 5.7 Percent; Teens Hit Hardest

[MoeBedard]

Unemployment doesn't have to be as bad as it is. For teenagers I agree it's hard when normal jobs for them is taken by all of the adults. But adults who are out of work from actual well paying jobs, it is very possible for you to make money online. This I do for a living. I am generally speaking to the audience of carpenters, lawyers, people who can blog about their skills and make money off it. Check out the videos on my channel to learn more on how you can make a living online.

seriously the whole point of this article is to point out that kids now won't have money to spend on the worthless crap that kids buy and how that will hurt the economy. kids don't need jobs, if they really want something they can mooch it off a parent or a relative.

I really do wish for a job that isn't just mindless drone work, something that can contribute to society. Unfortunately, it seems to be but a dream. Teens are restricted to skillless labor. It's only sad to see lots of the older generations stuck in the same boat.

I hope all of you realize that "the jobs Americian wont do" ARE THE TEEN JOBS OF THE PAST!!!. Yes the cheat low paying jobs that many illegal have used to be USA teenager jobs. PLUS, in Cali as the min wage went up the # of jobs went down.

too much money is being wasted here in the united states. it takes 1 year to rebuild bathrooms in my school and they send like 8 guys to do it when only 4 are required and it should take around 2 months. all that money is wasted because it doesnt belong to anybody except the government and no one cares that those workers dont want to work.

This month it is 6.7%. Any bets about what it will be next month.

This is not just the Wall Street crash. We have been heading this way for 40 years. We produce services (Walmart clerks, waiters); our industry is on its knees because we buy everything from China. The capital flow from us to them means that they are growing and dynamic; whereas, we are stagnant and declining.

It is time for America to focus on its problems and take the necessary measures, beginning with a period of protectionism

[rextony22]

say no to other countrys.

[mc0558]

But the people who are making money in the United States--who are the only people who count in the United States--want the added profits of workers who are paid $20 a month.

Nothing is going to change in America, and the road to economic collapse lying before it is firmly in place.

[FilmBorne]

Cool.... Teenagers will get more jobs than unemployed 25-40 years old. What can i say?

[Boondockflyfish]

go ahead and don't believe... it matter little to me

[Boondockflyfish]

hunger... or the desire to own an iPhone.

American teenagers will not do most of the jobs that illegals are doing in the US. Slaughtering chickens, and harvesting fruit and vegetables, or cleaning bathrooms just doesn't fit into the American teenager life-style.

I do agree that our country was negligent in monitoring and controlling the illegal immigrant problem. But that was during a phase in our history when the housing market was booming and construction industry required a cheap workforce. So it suited big business.

in response 2 Boondock:

Man fuck that shit tell those god damn american fucktards to WORK god damn it , smack'em in the head and say BITCH do WORK , and stop babying those bastards !@ show them what the real world is about and stop blaming big government and immigrants

[1981footboy]

True but who's to blame for a teenager's life-style? Parents, media, government, etc. They all had a part to play
