Our Upside-Down Workforce

It's hard to say this spring whether it's more difficult for the class of 2011 to enter the labor force or for the class of 1967 to leave it. Students now finishing their schooling?the class of 2011?are confronting a youth unemployment rate above 17 percent. The problem is compounding itself as those collecting high school or college degrees jostle for jobs with recent graduates still lacking steady work. ?The biggest problem they face is, they are still competing with the class of 2010, 2009, and 2008,? says Matthew Segal, cofounder of Our Time, an advocacy group for young people.
