America In An Era of Joblessness

OTR is generally not in the habit of spreading pessimism. Like most rational people he is far happier looking forward to better times. But reason operates in a world of observable reality, and sometimes a reader finds something that's not very pretty, but makes good sense. Don Peck has written one of those finds for The Atlantic. For my generation, America was a remarkable post-war opportunity. The national social and political landscape Peck imagines for our young adult children will be significantly more challenging. In fact, he feels a new era of joblessness will grow out of this recession and it will transform our national experience in ways we could never imagine. Here's your link to the article.
