Jobs, Jobs, Jobs
- ajg1977 15y agoI usually enjoy the posts on avc a lot, but I don't know whether this is just shameless promotion or a mistaken belief that recent unemployment trends are simply due to people and jobs not finding each other. Regardless of political leaning, I think most people would agree that those who became unemployed in the last 1-2 years are not remaining so due to a lack of looking.
- danvideo 15y agoThere's not much here, basically a pointer to Indeed.com - a site I happen to like - but why do we need to go to AVC to see it?
- zinssmeister 15y agook, so indeed.com is great and was a good investment. How does that help create jobs?
- davidw 15y agoThe point of Washington DC talking about it is that, at the margin, more or fewer entrepreneurs will be able to "do something about it" depending on a whole range of things like health care, taxes, regulations, infrastructure, etc... But Mr. Wilson is smart enough to know this - he's just boosting his portfolio's startup.
- 3pt14159 15y agoPeople here don't quite understand Fred's point. His point is that just as some technology is replacing jobs, other technology is helping the unemployed become employed by reducing the information and timing gap between the employer and the potential employee.

- littlegiantcap 15y agoI agree, advances in technology simply shift and grow jobs in different areas not just make them irrelevant.
