"As far as I'm aware from the economics blogosphere, arguments about "structural unemployment" are popular these days mostly in right wing think tanks."
Actually, I heard Bill Clinton talking about the same thing on the Daily Show this past week.
- sayrer 16y agoAll mainstream US politicians are fairly right wing.
- blhack 16y agoThis is a bit like saying that every city in the US is fairly warm. Yes, if you compare them to McMurdo Station in Antarctica, they are. Relative to each other, there are warm cities in the US, and cold cities in the US; Minneapolis, while not nearly as cold as McMurdo Station, is cold by US standards. Similarly, while US politicians may all be "right wing" in comparison to their European equivalents, there are most certainly politicians who, in the relevant context, are not.
