Political issue

Employment
The political issue I am going to be talking about this year is employment and unemployment, that people unfortunately has gone through desperation.

The article I have read is in the Huffington post, and it talks about how this year the employment rate for young adults has been the lowest in sixty years, study says.
Because the economy has been going down in this years, young people struggle finding jobs, eventhough they are well educated,and recently graduated from their colleges, it has not been easy for most of them, and when they do get a job, at the end get paid off less that they should get, but out of desperation, they settle with the first job they can get, after months or even years of searching for one. The population has been growing more with time, that can also be a factor.

The author stablishes credibility(ethos) by showing, where he got the information from in the beggining: J"ust 54 percent of Americans ages 18 to 24 currently have jobs, according to a study released Thursday by the Pew Research Center. " also shows examples from  interviews he had made to others, and by putting a the economic policy institute as a resource. After showing this information it makes you want to read more. For pathos he is not really persuasing anyone, but yourself that everyone is on the look for jobs, so it is going to  be more difficult, so I guess is making you want to look somewhere else than a big city. and ethos by making you want to feel sad because of them, and want to make them look around or maybe inspire them to get a different education, because the economy has been going down that most people are unemployed.
