Young Veterans Without Jobs: Too Many Are Locked Out Of ‘Recovery’

January 11, 2012 by Peter Whalen

“In 2007 in a hearing at Congress, I said the unemployment rate is going to go up to 20 percent, and people scoffed,” Daywalt recalled. “This year you’re going to see it go up to 50 or more percent.”  http://huff.to/xM5fbM

Again and again, we see the exploitation of military/veterans issues by the public relations machines of the Fortune 500 who spout gratuitous nonsense about all the good work their doing when in reality very little is being done for them. Meanwhile, they bask in the limelight of their own p.r. hyperbole around military and veterans issues. Most don’t even have military/veterans initiatives in their charitable giving programs. It’s all smoke and mirrors. I’ll become a supporter when 46% of employers stop discriminating against veterans w/ a PTSD diagniosis. Enough said.
