I am unemployed. I am looking for a job, and it aint easy at all. EVERY job that posts a position in the paper, has an extraordinary ammount of applicants. This is just basic jobs. 30-40 applicants for 1 open position. I live in the Champaign county area, population of around 200,000. I was guaging the workpool based on what is happening around here. This article stated the unemployment at 7% for illinois, I would think it is double digits easy. Add to that, governmental corruption....I always believed that the numbers for the "good times" was over inflated. I am an earner in the $25K-$30K annually. I had KNOWN that employment in Illinois was a good barometer for the employment situation in America. Having 5 states making up 40% of the GDP is disconcerting, knowing Illinois is one of those 5 is not good at all based on our employment situation. I live in Illinois. I am unemployed.
