[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC has the worst unemployment problem in the country. The number of people who've been out of work for a year plus is appalling. It would be great if our elected leaders could focus on that. They seem incapable of adapting to changed circumstances. Instead they go back to their go-tos, which are raising taxes to finance questionable spending [/quote] So many of those unemployed were trained for very specific government jobs that are not transferrable to the private sector. What exactly would you have them do?[/quote] Unemployment has been steadily rising since 2022. Long before Trump. [img]https://fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/fredgraph.png?g=1WLwv&height=490[/img][/quote]
