This week, the Senate is expected to extend jobless benefits to more than 5 million Americans through the end of the year. It is the sixth time in nearly two years that they’ve expanded or extended unemployment benefits — putting off, again, a day of reckoning our political leaders seem unwilling to face.
With the national unemployment rate at 9.9% — and 9.8% here in New York City — officials are afraid of what will happen to our cities, our welfare rolls and our struggling economy if these long-term unemployed are no longer given government assistance.
If you're one of those more than 5 million unemployed, why not take a look at starting your own business? Oddly enough, there are a few good opportunities to start a small business in this economy. For example, the newly enacted Health Care reform law, instantly created 30 million new patients. Those patients are going to need Medical Billing support. Medical Billing is one of ten new small business start ups included in my new FREE eBook you can download free here.
