Well, that's hardly a news - they've been saying this for a while now - if you are out of workforce, and can't find a new job within a few months - you are done. Economy shed 5% of workers and it won't be needing them again, 9% is now a base rate, and will be so until they raise Social Security age to 67, at which point it will probably go another few percent up.
