Reich: The Economic Challenge Ahead: More Jobs and Growth, Not Deficit Reduction

[Ed Suspicious]

2. That is the most infuriating thing about the austerity junkies. They refuse to acknowlege this

reality. The only thing I am left to take away from it is they are either ideologically opposed to government therefore they use economic downturn to eliminate spending via reduce funding to government programs/social supports, or they see no jobs on the horizon and their neo-liberal policies have finally come home to roost and we are simply screwed and will require a standard of living adjustment in a terribly shitty direction. Either way they are insufferable and I hate them.
