Class of 2013 Srewed

Class of 2013 Likely to Face Tough Start in Tight Job Market

High school and college graduates are still being hobbled by years of weak economic growth and an extremely tight job market, and that difficult start in the job market could impact the Class of 2013 for years to come, a new analysis finds.

An average of 29.9 percent of high school grads between ages 17 and 20 who weren't enrolled in further schooling were unemployed and actively looking for work between March 2012 and February of 2013.

According to EPI's analysis, the Class of 2013 could be earning less than they might have in a stronger economy for as long as 10 or 15 years.

News keeps getting better and better.

Well the left here has said on many occasions that Obama has done a tremendous job
turning this economy around...

Maybe they can tell that to these folks.

Bullshit....my son who graduates high school this year has an interview for part-time cashier at Lowes and was also offered a job for KMart (part-time). He is currently employed at Steak n Shake.
The opportunities for low-wage, no benefit jobs are boundless. That engineering degree could apply in all of these jobs.

(footnote: he will attend college in the fall, this is only summer employment for him)
