do you understand why this chart is important? If more and more people are not working, then that's less gov't revenues and more expenditures. That means higher deficits and debt and lower growth and a vicious cycle. Yes I understand. So government austerity is going to create employment? Hasn't worked so far... government has shed employment far and above what's happened in the private sector. Are you for or against the (floated) Obama budget? Or are you too distracted by frothing at the mouth to consider actual policy? (By the way I'm a data point in that chart, no longer working. Hopefully making space for a younger person to make a better living, and a good life for their family).
