IMPORTANT: The following is based on my personal opinion only. I have not found any hard scientific research to back up that what I'm proposing might help national unemployment. I just call it how I see it based on my personal experience. If you have a problem with that, I suggest you don't read any further.

With the official national unemployment rate hovering around 9.6% and new job offerings remaining scarce, the need for more jobs is evident. I believe there’s a relatively simple solution to induce job growth for thousands of well-paying office jobs.

The answer I believe can be found in the FAQ posted on the Department of Labor website which asks how many hours per day or per week an employee can work: The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) does not limit the number of hours per day or per week that employees aged 16 years and older can be required to work.
