What if that money had to be paid now by the taxpayer instead of later? Wonder if that would change the mood any!!! Unless the economy miraculously starts growing at a rapid pace it seems likely that unemployment will remain near 10% at least through 2010's end, the Economist's Free Exchange blog says. It's hard to imagine the backlash that may occur, but blog speculates increasing anger at Wall Street as well as foreign exporters. "The seeds will be sown for an unpleasant populist uprising, which might well do a lot of damage to American economic policy," blog says. "It's not a happy place to be. And I don't really understand why there isn't more visible concern in Washington (or on Wall Street, for that matter) about this state of affairs." economist.com
