More Important-National Security

[hiphop]

why?

Because the themes of my answer are very far from what diamond asked. They don?t have much to do with nat sec vs. economic sec.... so I didn?t want to shredder this thread totally.

So the reason is respect for brother diamond.

National Security. The less the government involves itself in the economy the better. Economy will straighten itself out....

Your position would be right if we had a perfect marked - of course we don't have. There are moments when a government should involve into economy.

I don't think that some here really grasp the severity of this economy. Sure, the GOP cites improvement on jobless claims--but these were done using formulas crafted by the Reagan Administration to make unemployment look rosier than what it actually was. Note: the government only cites "claims." Those who drop out of the system and run out of benefits are not included.

The Bush Administration needs to get their head out of the sand and do something about this!

The level of unemployment today is the same as it was under Bill Clinton in 1995.

Imho one mayor problem of the US are the working but still poor people.
There are even ppl. with more than 2 jobs who don't make enough money to feed their family.

I'd guess that those working poors increased in the last years. Do you have statistical informations aobut them?
