Apparently Now It's the "Unbroken Window Fallacy" March 3rd, 2009 · No Comments That which is seen: The Vice President today commended the new owners of Republic Windows and Doors, a Chicago window manufacturing plant that was shuttered late last year, resulting in the lay-off of its 250 union workers. Republic was purchased in bankruptcy court last week by Serious Materials, a California-based company that makes energy efficient windows. Serious Materials has announced plans to reopen the Republic factory and to eventually rehire all 250 of its laid-off workers at their former pay levels. Serious Materials said it purchased Republic because the Recovery Act will increase demand for its products. That which is not seen: The jobs lost elsewhere in the economy because of: higher taxes, crowding out of private investment by government deficits, entrepreneurial paralysis in the midst of never-ending and always-changing regulation, rent-seeking, government waste, political corruption, and the perpetual font of self-congratulatory hubris from politicians, bureaucrats, their pundit apologists, and all the other central-planning fetishists.
