Right, soaring inflation is in our future and it will remain there indefinitely.
So right now the biggest disaster is that we're doomed to "face improved productivity" along with the "weak central government" that's been piled on the catastrophic heap of "all the other problems we already had." I swear it's just one thing after another. Next I'll probably get clobbered by a big pile of money, some idiot will cure cancer, it will start raining jelly beans, my alarm clock will break *** * - --
Actually, if companies are laying off lots of workers, it only stands to reason that productivity “per worker” would increase, when coupled with the context of “most in 6 years.
It is like saying we have seen the greatest rise in rainfall in six years, right after a six year drought.
And we had 1/1000 of an inch of rain.
I’m waiting for this headline, after the entire workforce has been laid off: “Current statistics show NO drop in employment.” Woo hoo! Great news!
There are lies, damned lies, and statistics.
Sweden may be said to have had a "weak central government" in most of the 1700s. The King lost political control of much of Germany, Denmark, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Norway, and real control of Finland.
A weak Obama Regime could definitely see much of the Southwest lost to Mexico, New England to Socialist Canada, and Texas to a new independence movement. If you think current unemployment is bad, imagine the country cut into pieces by its enemies.
