I had the notion that Robert Reich was a really smart guy. So, although I don't follow him around the net waiting for pearls of wisdom to fall from his pen, I have a look at what he writes when I stumble over it.
So here: http://www.truthout.org:80/why-more-immigrants-are-answer-coming-boomer-entitlement-mess58459 he says that we (i.e., the USA) should have more immigrants because their employment will support the entitlements of an aging, retiring population. Then, a couple of days later, here: http://www.truthout.org:80/the-future-american-jobs58509 he essentially says, there aren't any jobs, there aren't going to be any jobs and when there are, eventually, a few jobs, they'll be poorly paid ones. Say what? Am I just slow this week or has RR shingled off onto the fog? - Mike -- Michael Spencer Nova Scotia, Canada .~. /V\ [email protected] /( )\ http://home.tallships.ca/mspencer/ ^^-^^ _______________________________________________ Futurework mailing list [email protected] https://lists.uwaterloo.ca/mailman/listinfo/futurework
