		<description><![CDATA[Like many people, I read the NYT article entitled the &#8220;American Dream Elusive for New Generation&#8221; and was shocked at the young man featured in the article who turned down a $40,000 per year job with a liberal arts degree because he felt it wasn&#8217;t attractive enough.  I don&#8217;t think there&#8217;s anything that I could [...]]]></description>
