Economic recovery leaves many behind

Economic recovery leaves Bay Area families behind - SiliconValley.com: " . . . Even as Wall Street surges, with major stock indexes hitting all-time highs week after week, the good times seem more like a mirage to many on Main Street. Here in the red-hot Bay Area, where job growth has been faster than what has been experienced in California and across the nation, thousands of people jobless for more than a year have seen their federal unemployment benefits slashed while the working poor scramble to stitch together two and three paychecks to keep their families afloat. . . ."

Depression is the New Normal

Washington & Wall Street: Jobs, Credit, and Economic Growth: "Krugman and his fellow travelers complain that “depression becomes the new normal” because public spending is constrained. But in reality the long-term goal for the US should be the withering away of the Keynesian socialist state and a renewed focus on private sector credit and job growth. The Fed, private businesses, and other players on the national economic scene ought to lead the discussion on how we can rebuild private markets to finance private sector growth, rather than resort to more futile monetary policy gestures or Keynesian pump priming."

The Big Shrug - NYTimes.com: "So how, in those long-ago days, would we have reacted to Friday’s news that the number of Americans with jobs is still down two million from six years ago, that 7.6 percent of the work force is unemployed (with many more underemployed or forced to take low-paying jobs), and that more than four million of the unemployed have been out of work for more than six months? Well, we know how most political insiders reacted: they called it a pretty good jobs report. In fact, some are even celebrating the report as “proof” that the budget sequester isn’t doing any harm."
