Good article. I do think underemployment is the new norm.
When I was a child in the 1960’s our elementary teacher told us
that in the future: “There would be more people and more leisure time.”
What she did not mention was it was going to be leisure time because
of either underemployment or unemployment. I wish the school system
would be honest with young people and tell them: “Don’t get in debt for
a fairly useless college degree and remember you are coming of age at a
time when full time jobs are rare, so plan accordingly.”
But still, this new underemployment norm benefits few & will keep most
young people on a bleak treadmill of working to pay for food and transportation
but never owning much else. Lord help us all because this new-norm is
awful.

Most Black people are underemployed. We always have been exploited and probably always will. I am reading right now this great book: http://www.amazon.com/Separate-Ways-Ella-Edmondson-Bell/dp/159139189X/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1322623558&sr=1-1 and I hope one day we will have a similar book which will talk about Black/White male professionals. I am building my own company because I won’t work harder for the mainstream to get screwed by not being promoted, etc. I am sick of this unequal system and I don’t want any part of it.

Bad times will not last always, just as good times do not last always. If you know this and believe it, you prepare for the bad times, and you prepare for the good times. You see, it’s what you do in your preparation throughout and during each time which will determine your disposition in either time. http://www.sslumpsum.com
