A Good Problem to Have


How's this for a looming problem? Washingtonpost.com reports that Fairfax County, VA will create far more jobs by 2030 than residents to fill them. It's a problem, no doubt, that probably isn't as wonderful as it sounds--too much of a good thing (jobs included) can wreak havoc in unforeseen ways. The ideal is to match job growth to demographic growth.

All told however, this is the better problem than its inverse.
