This is an apolitial obsercation.Chart aside, Obama said unemplyment (state of the union) is @ 10%. 1 in 10 Americans out of work. Now in good times, unemplyoment is @ 5%. So around 5% of Americans are out of work, more than normal.
So does it make sense to spend more $ on jobs bills and other stimulus for 5% of the population? I know people are suffering out of work, but it seems like a small amount? The reality is 90% of people are still working. Just a thought.
