The single Biggest issue of our economy is the Unemployment Crisis. Would any reasonable person who understands the cause of a disease oppose a cure? JG/ELR is what cures the disease of involuntary unemployment. The government needs to accept the theory that if government spends enough on “general” demand, jobs will trickle down in sufficient numbers that everyone (?) who wants one will get one is false. The program can be funded at the federal level and run at the local level, as Local communities are best suited to understand their needs. Can this program work with big and small government? Yes. Can this work with existing programs? Yes. Can we afford the program? Yes. Will the president make this a priority and raise the national discussion to create a plan for this project?
