Repub goal—Unemployment at 16%

A new analysis by the Economic Policy Institute shows the impact the Obama stimulus and other interventions that Republicans opposed had on unemployment.  Authors of the study say that if Republicans had gotten their way and the government had done nothing, unemployment would now be at 16%.  That’s right, 16%.  See the chart below and read the study at http://www.epi.org/economic_snapshots/entry/without_federal_intervention_unemployment_would_be_near_16/

That’s another reason to kick the bums out.
