With the economy in the toilet and with many large and small companies imposing a hiring freeze until there is a better understanding on what the economic future holds for them, there seems to be little opportunity for young people just finishing college; that is unless they are considering a career with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). From personal experience (I served with the CIA for seven years) it is a great place to work and one of the most exciting careers one could wish for. The downside is the difficultly of living a ‘normal’ life if you are posted overseas, not seeing family and friends much and having to perform tasks that you might not totally be comfortable with.

There are calls from groups such as the AFL-CIO, as well as other organizations and social programs and the U.S. Congress itself for an increase and possibly an extension of unemployment benefits as those who are out of work and have been receiving benefits are finding it difficult to find a new job in an economy in recession.
Some would argue for an increase in the dollar amount of weekly benefits, while others claim a simple extension of benefits is all that is needed. The current situation is that nearly 650,000 persons receiving unemployment benefits will see those benefits expire at the end of September, with an additional one and a half million workers facing the expiration of their benefits by year’s end.
