Sleepwalking through America’s Unemployment Crisis
http://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/elerian4/English
The US government has little time to waste if it is to avoid an even
more protracted and entrenched unemployment problem. It must move now to
address the problem’s sources through multi-year programs that range
from educational restructuring and worker retraining to productivity
enhancement and housing-sector reform. And it must do so while better
protecting the long-term unemployed, many of whom bear little
responsibility for their current, once unthinkable, and unfortunately
long-lasting predicament.
It is past time for the US to wake up and confront in a holistic
fashion its unemployment crisis. As everyone who has ever had an
unpalatable job knows, shutting off the alarm and pulling the blanket
over one’s head is not a solution.
