The Unemployment Benefit Application
In an article of the Washington Post, it discusses the unemployment rate is rising in the United States, leading to another .1% in the unemployment ratings. With people unskilled, they are mostly dependent on unemployment benefit applications rather then looking for a job themselves. As America is focused more on jobs, people of the unemployment demographic are seeking unemployment benefits and many private employers are expanding their options to creating jobs in our country. Although with a slight increase in creating jobs, there is still a larger demographic problem concerning this issue: People seek more unemployment benefits then just looking for jobs
Thankfully the unemployment rate isn't rising that rapidly, as 0.1% is not that disastrous. Additionally, even though the unemployment rate was raised slightly, the number of people who were able to go without unemployment aid the week of September 15th (85,000 according to the article) is a pretty decent number as well. I like the thought of private employers opting to create jobs in our country as opposed to outsourcing, I guess we'll just have to see what happens.
