Improvement in the employment viewpoint is trumpeted from
every side. The economy is growing, inflation is under
control, the well ahead looks bright. A myth circulates
that the other jobs bodily created will energize job seekers
and find the money for them hope.
The veracity is that it is more emotionally destructive to be
unemployed in a fine economy than during a recognized
recession. The stigma carried by the unemployed is that
somehow their plight is their own fault. Workers laid off
after their company downsizes, or after they have trained
foreign workers to put up with higher than their jobs and watched as their
livelihood headed overseas, internalize their confusion and
turn it into guilt and self-condemnation.
In the 1930s, no one out of law motto it as their fault. The
problem was straightforwardly economic, national, and beyond
individual control.
In the middle 1980s and in the future 1990s, there were recognized
recessions and complex company closures. The throb of lay-
off was as real as always but was received as an
economic hiccough and unemployment service were repeatedly
extended to tide on top of workers until the labor market
improved.
What is alternative practically 2004?
Politically, the trouble is painted as a national economic
non-issue - after all, there were extensive tax cuts and
interest rates continue at historically low levels. "A
chicken in all pot" was transformed into "A home for
everyone as soon as an SUV in the garage." The organization insists,
and the media reports, that the job viewpoint is clear and
the infamous jobless recovery finally over. The fact that
150,000 further jobs have to be created for newcomers to the
labor announce every month, just to preserve the status quo,
is neglected. The fact that there are more than 8 million
workers without an income, more than 1 million of them for
over a year, is too hurting to think more or less - so it isn't.
The fact that supplementary jobs are predominantly in in poor health paid
service jobs though manufacturing and intelligent production work
continues to fall is not worthy of comment.
"Everyone who wants to enactment will have a job." What a great
political tagline. But what does it imply? That anyone
without a job does not desire to work?
The logic is: Let's not blame unsuccessful economic
strategy, or the corporate greed of summit executives making
millions though frill their pretend force to increase
profits, or repetitively poor embassy decisions - let's
put the blame on the needy saps out of be in who must have
done something incorrect to get into that position. And let's
not extend unemployment encouragement because that will force
them into taking those terrible bottom level jobs which will
make the unemployment rate go beside and ourselves look good.
We just have to acquire the media to purchase into the huge lie and
we're all set.
Arrogance, dereliction, and disinformation. The big lie,
often enough repeated, apparently works.
