Only during periods of greatly increased unemployment.
- dnautics 16y agoso high unemployment makes irresponsible spending okay? The other problem with aggregate metrics is that no matter how well you craft them they ignore motivation - for example, I can conceive of situations where high unemployment isn't so bad. Call me a traditionalist, but maybe our society would be better if family units could afford to have one parent stay at home and take care of the children, or the elderly, hell, maybe even pitch in to help take care of kids of single parents in a co-op kind of arrangement. (to be followed by trite retort about how unemployment is measured)
