The permanent oversupply of unskilled labor bothers me, especially after the British riots. The proliferation of “flash mobs” in the US is frightening.
Now, I hate government spending as much as the next hard-core conservative, but...suppose we set up a National Infrastructure Corps and hired people for $15 an hour to do jobs that government unions are doing for $40 an hour?

permanent oversupply of unskilled labor
That's FOUR major falsehoods all run together! Wholly socialist-Marxist economic-speak.

(1) Permanent     Nothing is permanent. These are temporary conditions due to regulatory and legal constraints on human FREEDOM. Release those constraints and within MONTHS the situation will rectify.

(2) Oversupply     That's a very inhumane way of speaking. Oversupply of what? "Unskilled labor", is that what you say? OF COURSE NOT. Every ONE of those FELLOW HUMANS can readily learn the skills needed in 90%+ of jobs circa 2011 GC (Gregorian Calender). When I say readily here I mean: in days. DAYS!

What holds them back? Fear and de-motivation. BOTH THOSE NEGATIVE EMOTIONAL FORCES are the coin and currency of Marxism and socialist policy.

(3) Unskilled     They are not unskilled, no human is unskilled. They are LABELED unskilled. Marxists love such labels. See (2).

(4) lABOR     That term is a pure Marxist invention. It is utterly dehumanizing.

THROW OFF THE CHAINS THAT BIND YOUR THINKING!

Start thinking of fellow humans as fellow humans. Refuse to use the terminology of Marxism and socialism. Talk FREEDOM AND LIBERTY. Talk true brotherhood. Never LABEL fellow humans.

Hard-core conservative? My spidey-sense is tingling.

Shall we also call it ACORN, appoint a White House Czar to oversee it all, and make all the NIC'ers are registered to vote properly?

OK, hang on a minute...
