		<description><![CDATA[There is a paradox in the American economic recovery. GDP is expanding at incredible rates, and yet the economy keeps shedding jobs. While the official unemployment figure stands around 10 percent, including worker who are underemployed pushes &#8220;the full measure of slack in the labor market closer to 20 percent&#8220;.
