To the editor:
I wish that 20 million of the 25 million people looking for work would hurry up and quit looking for work.This would get our unemployment down to 5 percent and we could declare the recession over and celebrate victory. This will not leave enough people in the workforce to increase federal tax revenues, but we can balance the budget by slashing Social Security, Medicare, and defunding ObamaCare. This will only leave about 60 million people with food insecurity, but we can cure that by reducing the funding for food stamps. This will take a real bipartisan effort like we have seen recently.
