Most recent unemployment numbers
The Department of Labor released their monthly unemployment numbers today. The numbers were not good even though the overall unemployment rate came down slightly. A really good article on the overall numbers can be read at the New York Times.

Looking at the numbers broken down by age and race is really disturbing though.
Unemployment rate among whites, all ages: 5.7%
Unemployment rate among white teenagers: 17.5%
****
Unemployment rate among blacks, all ages: 12.1%
Unemployment rate among black teenagers: 38% (up 5% from last month)

1 ReplySo... You know this article just goes to show that even with the shitty job climate, there is racial discrimination when it comes to hiring workers. It's nothing to do with them being lazy, it's that people won't give them a job in the first place so they end up going down the less savoury roads that you love to go on about.
