“The rehiring in the early ’90s came from startups who were growing gangbusters such as Cisco, Oracle, Wind River Systems, Micron, etc., etc.,” says Patti Wilson, a career counselor in the Silicon Valley. “These are now established companies today. .. There has been no place for the laid-off to run to unless it is out of the industry altogether, as nobody has been hiring until recently.” These companies are still hiring like mad, they are just not hiring in the US. The fed knows it and they're going to have to do something soon imho. If we didn't have this giant deficit to worry about there would be some advantageous things we could do with corporate taxes.
