In case you missed it, California Congresswoman, Maxine Waters, made a startling prediction regarding the economic future of African-American job-seekers.
During Sunday’s episode of Meet The Press, Waters, who recently made headlines after telling the Tea Party to “go straight to hell”, said, the jobless rate among blacks is about to get much, much worse.
Waters told Meet The Press moderator, David Gregory, that the unemployment rate among blacks may climb as high as 20%.
The California congresswoman admitted that the lack of education plays a factor in the current unemployment rate among African-Americans; which according to CNN Money, reached 16.7% in August.
Waters also said President Obama needs to come up with a bold jobs plan, because out of work Americans are angry.
