Why are so many people employed in California even though jobs have been increasing recently? Unemployment is one of the controversial issues that affects the economy of a nation and also the factor that lengthens the gap between the rich and poor because of the inequality income. There are two reasons that make the mount of unemployment constantly increase. First, there are limited numbers of job vacancies because people lack work experience and education requirements. Second, Jobs have been increasing but still not enough because there are too many people needing jobs. Third, the labors from others countries are also the significant that lead millions people in California to face unemployment.
Education and work experience are the way for
During the Great Depression, millions of families lost their jobs, homes, and depleted their savings in both urban and rural areas. In 1930, 15 million people became unemployed due to the Dust Bowl. Millions of families lost their jobs, homes, and depleted their savings in both urban and rural areas. Out of the 15 million, one million citizens moved to California between 1935 and 1940 in search of work. This made the population increase from 1.3 million Americans to 5.7 million.
...es the Yosemite Falls and the sequoia trees. One of the state’s problems is the appetite for water. The once fertile Owens valley is now dry and its waters tapped by Los Angeles. In the Imperial Valley, the eradication of water is controlled by the All-American Canal which gets its water from the Colorado River. In Central Valley the poor distribution is the water problem that is an imbalance lessened by the vast Central Valley project. California had cutbacks in federally funded water in the 1970sand 80s which led to California cities buying water from areas that had a surplus of water. But California failed to make a long-term to plan and the federal government stopped the funding of water to the state in 2003. But with all this being said and done, California remains to be a unique state with a lot of entertainment, history, agriculture and a productive economy.
California was home to many immigrants in the history. Each had its dream in order to come here, and as we know from history, many immigrants left their country and family for this country. However, many Californians do not aware of the opportunities that California brings.
While analyzing the given data about the population projections and job projections, I noticed that the city of Clovis is estimated to grow at a gradual rate . With the population growth with over 60,000 people in the last 35 years , the city has a annual growth rate of 1.2%. I hypothesized that the mid-sized city would be growing way too much and too fast compared to the jobs that are projected to become available. I quickly resented my mistake and scripted the numbers to create an age dependency ratio to see who aren’t productive economically. After applying the formula, I found out that 42.9 % of the people in the total population don’t work and they don’t apply to to the workforce improvement and expansion. With that being said, it makes sense that the population’s growth correlates with the job growth in Clovis. When just over half of the population works , it makes sense not to have as many occupations . It is also obvious that every job has had a consistent growth other than occupations such as mining , agriculture, and even government. This is because the government would only significantly expand if you changed some of the state government’s policies. And as for Mining and Agriculture, times
The job market can be a confusing place when taken at face value, there are plenty of available jobs, but there are not many people to fill those jobs. How can unemployment be so high when there are so many jobs that are just waiting for someone to apply. The truth is that while the job market might seem like you can have any position you can think of, most people just aren’t qualified for them. There are many jobs that require little to no skill to obtain and usually do not provide enough money to live well from. The reality of the competitive job market is that companies seek out not only the best qualified individuals, but the ones who have proven ability in the field. To meet this need, companies have developed recruiting strategies to
Unemployment of 7.3% has been a part of having illegal immigrants taking jobs of Americans. Many construction jobs and hardworking jobs are being taken from Americans because many immigrants are willing to do more work for less pay and this can truly affect the unemployment rate. Multiple occasions, in which, a citizen of the United States cannot find any jobs, having to start a new career, possibly having to move to where one can find a fertile econom...
... the last decade, it can be concluded that the state and economic experts have failed to create mechanisms that could aid and promote growth in those marginal cities that slow down the state’s economic growth. Different regulations, as well as incentives, could be implemented in those cities to promote the creation of jobs and that way lower the unemployment rate. With the expansion of the GDP, the cost of living has also raised for the citizens of California, causing millions of people who do not have equal access to high disposable personal incomes to live in poverty. In the long run, this huge gap between the developments of the different areas could really harm the economy for the state of California, by dividing the population into poor and rich areas, and making it impossible for the poorer population to put up with the overall high cost of living of the state.
The state of Florida like most states in our nation has fallen on very hard times since the recent economic crash. Now more than ever millions of citizens are finding themselves out of work and needing to rely on governmental assistance for help. If a citizen meets all the qualifications for unemployment the state has many programs set in place that allow these citizens to receive help from the state. The state of Florida is doing all that it can to help its unemployed citizens make it through this financial crisis through programs and
There are about 15 million to 20 million illegal immigrants in the U.S. The majority of them are Mexicans. They make up about 52 percent of population of illegal immigrants. This is a problem. The states with the highest number of illegal immigrants are California, Nevada, Texas and Arizona all states that share the border with Mexico. For all those states illegal immigrants make up for more than 7.4 percent of the workforce (McClellan, Nick. "The States With the Most Illegal Immigrants." Slate Magazine). All the states also have an unemployment rate of 4.6 and higher (Legislatures, National Conference of State. "State Unemployment Rates | December 2016."State Unemployment Rates).
Unemployment is one of major problems the United States has within its country. In this article it states, “The US economy added 236 thousand jobs in February, bringing down the number of unemployed people from 12.3 million to approximately 12 million people. Slightly more than a quarter of those are in their teens, 6.8% are white, 9.6% are Hispanics and 13.8% are African Americans. ”(Unemployment Rate In US Lowest In Four Years 1)
At the same time, the shares of jobs in wholesale and retail trade and in services have risen, standing at about 23% and 28%, respectively. Since 1991, Hawaii's economy has suffered from rising rates of unemployment. This stands in marked contrast to the period 1980 to 1993, when the state enjoyed very low unemployment rates relative to the nation as a whole. But by 1994 the recession had raised Hawaii's unemployment rate to the national average (6.1%) for the first time in 15 years. In 1995, the state's unemployment rate improved slightly in the first eleven months of the year to 5.4 percent, a 0.6 percentage point decline from the first eleven months of 1994.
First, the lack of job opportunities are becoming an obstacle that is hurting the US. 5.5 million citizens are unemployed without unemployment benefits. Low income jobs now account for forty- one percent of jobs in the US. Only 45.4% of Americans had jobs in 2010, the lowest rate since 1983. The US needs to create better job opportunities
People need money to purchase all kinds of goods and services they needed every day and sometimes, for goods or services they desire to own. To fulfill that, they have the essential need to earn money. In order to earn money, they must work in either in fields related to their interests or to their qualifications. However, people will meet different challenges during their jobs-hunting sessions, such as many candidates competing for a job vacancy; salaries offered are lower than expected salaries and economic crisis or down which causes unemployment. Unemployment is what we will be looking into in this report. Dwidedi (2010) stated that unemployment is defined as not much job vacancies are available to fulfill the amount of people who want to work and can work according to the current pay they can get for a job they chose to work as. There are four major types of unemployment: frictional, structural, cyclical and seasonal unemployment.
The most common causes of unemployment are getting fired and layed off for specific reasons. People might get layed off if a company is going out of business or maybe if there are positions in the company that are no longer needed. It’s difficult to find a job right away after being fired. Companies don’t want to hire someone who has just been fired for reasons such as failure to do a sufficient job, not showing up to work, stealing, etc. It’s also hard to find a job instantly after being layed off. In some cases the economy is down and it is hard to find any work in general.
Unfortunately, there are many Americans out of work in today’s current declining economy. Unemployment can be defined as a person who is out of work involuntary, not by choice. These people are looking jobs and available to start work. Being unemployed can be disheartening and deciding what the next step is can be challenging. Underemployed can be described as being inadequately employed, such as a low-paying job that requires fewer skills than one possess. (Daly, Hobijn, and Kwok 2015) Making ends meet can be difficult for one who has been affected by this economy over the past few years. America still has a high unemployment rate since the decline of the current job market. And many Americans are struggling to establish the skills needed for employment, or the underemployed are force to lower they skill to make a profit. America’s economic status has force the underemployed and unemployed to make ends meet with the current jobs available. And last but not least some have also utilized these difficult times to venture into new discoveries to make life hassle free. So, we wonder is Americans giving up in today’s economy or do they settle for lower end job to establish a steady income to make ends.
