Today's headline is a quote from Robert Reich, former Secretary of Labor, interviewed on Countdown. In reaction to today's latest unemployment numbers, Keith Olberman asked if we're heading into Depression. Reich said there is no clear definition for that scary word, but that perahps "mini Depression" might be a better description. Reich also correlated our lame duck White House to the Hoover admin.
If Reich and Olberman had only read my earlier musings, they might have used the word I coined for these times .."Repression."
This cartoon was awarded a Pulitzer Prize in the Depression era.
