Why are some employers asking workers and would-be workers for their Facebook passwords?

Because, with U.S. unemployment hovering at 8.3%, they can.

"Unfortunately, in these economic times employers may exercise latitude in asking for the unreasonable," career coach Sandra Lamb said in an email. "But employees (and applicants) should be steadfast in asserting their rights to their personal life. If your FaceBook or other social media website password is requested (or required) that goes beyond a red flag--it's a deal breaker."
