Ted, What do you mean by the term "full employment". Under Clinton, unemployment dropped below 4%.....most economists believed that was full employment.

This used to be 6% back in the 70's and early 80's. Once again, the goal posts are being moved.

In any case, there are going to be people who are unemployed. Paying them not to work will have the same effects as reducing the unemployment level down to 0%.

Yes, it can. It might mean that Paris has one less car to drive but really she'll survive.

It might mean you could do without a degree or two with so many poor people without any....
