What is up with job candidates today?

We have posted a position for an insides sales rep.
We invited about 10 of them to interview and only 3 showed up to interview.
This has happened numerous times in the past. People don't show up for interviews. Is this a basic skill that is lost on people nowadays? Not even a call.
We have about 5 open positions right now and they have been open for the past 6 months. I can't find anybody to fill them. We have posted on pretty much every job board imaginable. Very frustrating!

Sort of weird for a professional position. Could understand if it were crap jobs.
I know people that are struggling badly with underemployment- its the hidden problem in today's economy.
My neighbor was a staff accountant at a mid-size company that merged all their operations to another state. He was given the opportunity to move, but chose not to (families are from here, kids are established in school. etc.)
He can only find part-time work in his field and is having to supplement with more part-time work. His wife had to go back to work and can also only find part-time work.

I feel your pain. I'm trying to hire an intern/co-op and they aren't returning calls or e-mails, trying to string me along while trying to lock in other jobs, etc.
Damn college kids.
