<<My hunch about long term unemployment of a year or more was right. Today's unemployment figures came out. 8 million Americans out of work. 2 million categorized as long term unemployed, which is triple what it was 3 years ago.>> Oh, so you're just assuming these 2 million are technology workers?? Remember YOUR long-term unemployed SWAG was related to TECHNOLOGY workers...I would bet they make up a very small percentage of the long-term (over 1 year) unemployed.
