The future of our jobs!

In an article about US jobs in the recession, Rana Foroohar and R. N. Schneiderman wrote in the November 8 Newsweek magazine that this recession is different because the US unemployment is concentrated in only three sectors, construction, manufacturing and finance!

But they think there are good sectors that had kept a good life or are actually rebounding just now. The interesting point they made is that for a change, globalization is moving our economy up. They say, "The connective tissue between many of these categories is overseas markets, particularly emerging ones. The boom in agriculture and commodities of any sort is mostly a tale of the high-speed growth of emerging markets, which are now demanding more of everything from meat to energy". As part of their logic, they think that India , China and Brazil in their need for resources and goods will continue to put US exports in double digits for quite some time and that will encourage our economy!http://www.newsweek.com/2010/09/25/new-jobs-aren-t-where-the-workers-are.html

In my opinion, any good news is great rigth now!
