It might not be so bad if the jobless could expect to find new employment fairly soon. But unemployment has become a trap, one that’s very difficult to escape. There are almost five times as many unemployed workers as there are job openings; the average unemployed worker has been jobless for 37 weeks, a post-World War II record.
In short, we’re well on the way to creating a permanent underclass of the jobless. Why doesn’t Washington care?
Because we need to slay the beast that is "Car Talk" and get involved in one of those awesome (and totally free apparently) wars!!!
Cue Lee Greenwood or someone else STAT!
