Unemployment in the USA
IMHO:
For some years now our leaders have been of the mindset, and very proud that we are in an information econony. What does that mean?? Basically we have become paper shufflers. We no longer the great world producer. Our corrupt/out of touch politicians/law maker/breakers think that a great job for all the country is working for the govt. like the social security admin writing checks all day.
Add to that the environmentalists who dont want any noise/pollution/traffic/global warming/ - you get it, and our factories are shutting down like crazy.
Now we add our yutes who refuse to be educated, and our "educators" who think that college is the way to go.
Here's the way I see it. paper shuffling for the govt has its place but not for the whole country. We must produce things or we will become weak (maybe too late). to produce you have to make some noise and ruffle some feathers.
Not all can/want/need to go to college. It's too expensive and it produces very little tangible results. A good technical school training in a craft is what we really need. Our teens need a skill to become productive and actually produce something. Then they will move up the ladder of success.
Our present school systems are ruining the economy and we get so little out of it.
I pay $7200/year real estate taxes for my 1800sqft "mansion" in a "poor" suburb of NJ. It is 90% school tax. AND the kids still cant tie their own shoes!!!
So here it is - we have high unemployment, and everyone is waiting for the big signal so they can get back to work. HELLO - there is NO work. All our factories/offices are GONE. People with NO money cant buy cars etc. GM and all others are gone or sold out to the Chinese.
Govt controlled, manditory health care/insurance - is a scam. It is a lesson in socialism/communism. We are being taken over little by little - It is a slow motion coup. Do you think that the system can support additional millions (yes including illegals) with out consequence. Keep believing that "the wealthy" wll pay and by having all records in the computer and the elimination of ALL corruption, costs will be covered.
If that were true it would be done and the money saved will cover those not covered - case closed.
Our enemies are laughing and waiting. When we eventually wage war with a real foe, we will have to out source our weaponry. If we wage war with China, we will have to say "dont go to war for about 2years while you produce munitions for us to use against you"!!
We will become the healthiest,most pollution free thirld world nation.

Take out the dominoes.
