So, are we to believe that you believe that if everyone in the world woke up tomorrow with 100% ambition, focus desire and preparation that all the unemployed could find jobs and that all the underemployed could find appropriate jobs?

Nothing like a little class warfare to stoke the fires of rebellion.

Heck, the GOP does it all the time, so why not the left too?
