I know the job market is tough out there but I've been looking for decent jobs that are open to liberal art degrees.  Sad to say there really aren't a whole lot.  I think I would have problems even getting a secretary job.  But I do see a lot of postings for accounting positions.  Yes, there might be a lot of competition out there, but its a shot. 

Can you give some specifics why you think an accounting degree is the same as a history degree in terms finding a good career?
