The long-range sloution to high unemployment is to increase the incentive for ordinary people to save, invest, work, and employ others. We make it costly for employers to employ people; we subsidize people not to go to work We have a system that increasingly taxes work and subsidizes nonwork.

If you pay people not to work and tax them when they do, don't be surprised if you get unemployment.

The way you solve things is by making it politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing.

What would the people who sold us goods do with the money? They'd get dollars. What would they do with the dollars? Eat them?!
