Why No One Cares About Unemployment
by Guest Thu Mar 03, 2011 7:06 pm
But I think there's another factor at work here: deep in their hearts, nobody in Washington really believes they can do anything about unemployment these days. Republicans don't truly believe in their "growth agenda," they just want to cut taxes and slash spending on social programs. Democrats would like to believe that fiscal stimulus works, but I suspect the reality is that most of them are pretty skeptical. Ditto for jobs programs, training programs, mortgage cramdown legislation, and much more.

Employed people don't want to believe they could be the next person to lose their job. It's a matter of "out of sight, out of mind".

What else is there to say. Maybe we should move Washington DC to China to lower our costs.When you watch CSPAN, nobody is there in Congress and Senate. They could be on the Moon as far as they care. Most of the time we think they are by the way they act.
