The Associated Press is reporting today here that unemployment holds high and steady at 9.6%:
Unemployment has now topped 9.5 percent for 14 months in a row, the longest stretch since the Great Depression of the 1930s.
Flash back to the beginning of the year when we were in month six of the fourteen:
"And the notion that I would somehow resist doing something that cost half as much but would produce twice as many jobs -- why would I resist that? I wouldn't. I mean, that's my point, is that -- I am not an ideologue. I'm not."
-- BHO, Baltimore Q and A, January 29, 2010
What else but devotion to a failed ideology would work like such a charm and keep unemployment so high for so long?
