It was reported here on DU that jobless claims climbed up again.

But if you take the Republican approach - that's no problem!

Luckily, we can still live like Americans! All we have to do use that new leisure time *making* the luxury items that we used to just go out and buy.

This instructional video can get you started!

(satire, of course)

2. Well, it doesn't - that's not the point.
It's more of a "Let them eat cake" answer to the unemployment issue. Personally, I feel that when it comes to this issue, the Republican's are playing the role of Marie Antoinette.
