[PEN-L:3761] Re: Unemployment as measure of gains over bysiness cycle

[Ellen Dannin ([EMAIL PROTECTED])]

Sometimes the mass media does a nice job of encapsulating the problems we 
have now.  Even those who are not Start TRek - Deep Space Nine fans might 
want to look at the last 2-part series in which - as a consequence of the 
US govt's removing all public supports except 3 basic meals a day - the 
masses of the unemployed are herded into large ghetto areas, walled, 
guarded, preyed upon, unaided, ignored by the elite who gather at elegant 
cocktail parties to complain about social ills that make their vacations 
less than pleasant.
