Arlene Goldbard posted a two-part essay on "the jobs plan we need"
*"I am trying to tell the story right.* In the story I am telling, job creation proceeds from a radical shift in our understanding of work and its rewards, from a radical shift in our understanding of the public interest. We *can* make this shift, to be sure, but *will we*? If you still think we can’t afford it, click back to the doubletime ticker adding up our investment in war. <http://costofwar.com/en/> "All I know is that, individually and collectively, I don’t want to waste this lifetime settling inside the limitations imposed by other people’s fears or false beliefs. I want it to be used as fully as possible." At Economist's View, one of the most popular economics blogs out there, Mark Thoma has linked to an excerpt from Arlene's essay, "Infrastructure has another meaning, too." http://economistsview.typepad.com/economistsview/2011/09/infrastructure-has-another-meaning-too.html -- Sandwichman
