Academics without jobs

A HUGE problem in Sweden is the all-time high in unemploymancy for young people with academic degrees. A university degree in Sweden is no longer a gurantee for a fun and rewarding job, a career or even just a plain and simple job wich pays the bills. It's a problem the current socialdemocratic government has failed at solving after ten years in power. Their solution of choice is more money to "job-seeking courses" and artificial jobs funded by tax money, neither will create more a jobmarket where companies are more inclined to employ more people.

Today I came across a blog by a young unemployed academic and I've linked to it on the right, fingers crossed she finds a job soon.
