Unemployment

Pants and I were talking about how the boomers were gonna start retiring soon. That got me thinking: maybe the reason the job market is so tight is that this sea of extremely tallented (read: old) workers have filled all the best-paying positions. If that's true, then when the tide goes out, there should be lots of treasure waiting to be plucked off the coast.

The Post has an article about how Uncle Sam is looking to fill its ranks since over the next decade, the boomers are going to retire.
