Joe, > Produce less unskilled labor and more skilled labor.

And how about the current unskilled workers who are now out of a job? Tell them, "Life is tough"? No politician ever wants to tell anyone that, especially not those who will be responsible for his or her re-election.

Then there's the whole question about whether a society as huge as America can support so many skilled workers. It kind of gets "top-heavy," if you know what I mean. Not everyone can be CEO.

So many problems that can only be solved by letting the free market do its thing. Yet for many, the free market is cruel and unfair, so why not try and meddle in it? You know, to correct an imbalance here and there. What could possibly go wrong?

Welcome to the Obama-Nation ...
