  • Why doesn't anyone find out the REAL unemployment rate, not just those eligible for benefits?

    How about total population between 18-65 minus those filing W2, 1099(self-employed), and disability benefits? I believe that the powers that be really believe 90% of us are working. I think the number is closer to 60%...and that we are in need of a major increase of blue-collar jobs. Our leaders are totally out of touch with reality.

  • Doesn't anybody out there realize what's wrong with our economy?

    We don't manufacture anything hardly. Blue collar mfg. jobs are scarce. We need to limit imports, forcing goods to be mfg. here. Expanded unemployment benefits are a stupid idea, really. NAFTA - a democratic party policy...is part of the problem. Repeal NAFTA, tax incoming goods to make it attractive for companies to make things here, and put working people back to work. A true global economy makes us poorer and them richer. And why am I, an uneducated unemployed guy in the midwest, the one to point this out? Are you all just too distracted by your own day-to-day drudgery to see it???
