Which is how an economy is supposed to be as well as it spurs growth, those hired in turn create jobs in the communities they are in, especially in small local businesses, as well as for companies doing business with those hiring as they grow. The way it used to function under our once Capitalist system not the top down capitalist system the few created with the con, free market capitalism, they would invest to create and as seen haven't and won't.
The Executive branch has only a few tools they can do to push the wealthy and corporations into hiring the needs they do have, reason they're pushing workers to do more for less now is that need, and this one has been doing since coming into office, those in and around, while the congressional obstructor's continue to obstruct and not only do nothing but the House had already tried cutting the already underfunded for decades, especially the past one, Veterans Administration budget as soon as they took over the House.
March 15, 2012 - More veterans are coming back from war and getting back to work in the civilian job force, thanks to efforts by both employers and the government, as well as the improving economy.
The jobless rate for Iraq and Afghanistan veterans has fallen to 7.6%, well below the overall U.S. unemployment rate of 8.3%, and nearly five percentage points below the 12.5% rate for veterans a year ago.
Many employers make it a point to hire vets. Dawn Halfaker, a former military police captain who lost her arm in Iraq in 2004, is among them. She founded her consultancy Halfaker and Associates in 2006, with the intention of hiring wounded warriors like herself.
"I know what it's like to get injured and have your career taken away from you," she said. "So I want to make sure my company is a vehicle to offer opportunities to other warriors."
Nearly half of the 170 employees at Halfaker and Associates are veterans, and 10% of them are disabled. read more>>>
