Executive Editor JOEL KOTKIN on Docudharma regarding Works Progress Administration

by Kaitlin Hopkins 11/12/2009

"Unemployment today may not be as extreme as in the 1930s, but for whole segments of the population--notably young workers under 25--it is on the rise. Already young workers with college educations suffer a 7.7% jobless rate, while employment is nearly twice that among young workers overall. Hardest hit, in fact, are young people without college educations, whose real earnings already have dropped by almost 30% over the past 30 years, according to one study. "
