OK, so let me see if I understand Robert Reich.

1. If the GOP prevents Obama from spending American into another trillion dollars in deficit, there won’t be additional government jobs, and some current government employees might lose their jobs.
2. Reduction in government jobs will make the unemployment rate rise.
3. A high unemployment rate will guarantee that Obama loses reelection 50 weeks from now.

I’m going to have to think about this for a while. I might have a difficult time making it through the next four years without Obama as my President.
