Dicks.

I currently have a job. I hope you do too, and I hope that you keep it. I say this because chances are, we'll all be fucked soon. Robert Reich brings us this:

As more and more Americans lose faith that their government can do anything to bring back jobs and wages, they are becoming more susceptible to the Republican's oft-repeated lie that the problem is government -- that if we shrink government, jobs will return, wages will rise, and it will be morning in America again. And as Democrats, from the President on down, refuse to talk about jobs and wages, but instead play the deficit-reduction game, they give even more legitimacy to this lie and more momentum to this vicious political cycle.

Why is the new definition of serious so close to the traditional definition of stupidly working in the opposite direction from what you ought to be doing?

Dicks.
