Not saying that the article is false, but that doesn't make sense. There are major tax incentives to hiring the unemployed.

Unemployed need not apply<http://money.cnn.com/2010/06/16/news/economy/unemployed_need_not_apply /index.htm> NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The last thing someone who is unemployed needs to be told is that they shouldn't even apply for the limited number of job openings that are available. But some companies and recruiters are doing just that. Employment experts say they believe companies are increasingly interested only in applicants who already have a job. The article goes on to say that there is a prejudice against those unemployed. The reasoning is that if you were a quality worker, you wouldn't be jobless. That is wrong on so many levels. So many businesses have closed to inept management. Nothing to do with the rank and file. Also, hiring someone from another employer doesn't necessarily create another opening. The other employer may decide to merge the job with others. J - Show me a young Conservative and I'll show you someone with no heart.
