Interesting article on how unemployment is hitting different demographic groups….differently.

http://www.cnbc.com/id/33210088

The jist of the article seems like fodder for a battle of the sexes argument, we’ve danced that dance already, but what is interesting is how they broke out the differening employment change by race, sex and marital status. Marital status leads to less layoffs? That just seems odd to me that it is even a factor, perhaps it has more to do with age. Still kinda interesting and it may relate to housing, it would seem that condos would see less buyers if it’s all the single men losing their jobs, or maybe it has nothing to do with anything.

Well, no one likes to admit that managers would probably pick a single guy to lay off vs. one who has a wife and kids. Also, aren’t married people the minority anyway these days?

As a side note, this paragraph from the article disturbs me and seems in line with Obama’s new education agenda:

“Another possible but more expensive step would be greater provision of childcare. Increasing the length of the school day, lowering the starting age and reducing school vacations might all help.”

“The problems of many women in the workforce are far more ingrained and harder to deal with.”

…..from the last line of the article. .. Just makes ya smile…..

uh, more chidcare is ‘troublesome”?

got kids? ever struggled to try to find a freaking place to put em?

Ive raised a bunch of them, had good income, and there were patches of sheer crazed desperation trying to patch together a plan for making sure they were all cared for w/ no SAHM.

anybody who criticizes greate raccess to day care is IMHO not in touch with the reality of life in this no-family-support, overworked, crazy society.

even now when they’re big, schools let out at what, 2:30? what si the freaking plan/ where are all these kids to go? statsitically there’s gonna be problems.

it’s a constant source of worry and anxiety.

youc an say, then, well don’t have kids.

good point.

but kids are here. and SAHM situation not viable at all times for all families

so what’s the plan????

more better day care….
