It's claimed that the US unemployment rate is very low, but I suspect
the government simply defines most unemployed people as not being part
of the labor force.  There seem to be more and more homeless people
every year.  The Washington Post keeps asking why so many people
believe the economy is in bad shape when the government informs us
that it's in great shape.  My conjecture is that the government is
lying to us.

I hate to tell you this but a lot of the homeless people in the DC area
actually have jobs.... just not jobs that pay enough for them to live
off the streets.  If anything, that is more damning.
