This not hiring the older experienced is so bad now, we could start our own Country - just a figure of speech of course.

Of course. Besides, they would never permit us to start a better country. (grumble grumble - which wouldn't be that hard to do - grumble grumble)

I wonder what employers think about when they read that article. Do they say poor woman, I wish her luck? Do they ask if their company has a position open for her? Or do they just ignore it?

If they do read it, it probably doesn't even register on their emotion meter. The stock market, that is where their emotions lie. The stock market, once again, is doing just great. Up up up. The best all year. How is that possible?

I've been wondering that myself.
