There had to be a dozen mismatched suitcases - big ones - all stuffed to capacity and secured with luggage straps, but the one I noticed first was a small, pink overnight bag with a teddy bear sticking out of the front pocket. Its owner stood in the airline-ticketing queue clutching an American Girl doll while all around her, family members hugged and cried.
Immigration's impact on native Blacks and their communities is disproportionate, direct and devastating," said. Dr. Claud Anderson, president of The Harvest Institute, a Black-focused research, policy and education organization. Anderson said that the hidden national employment rate of Blacks is 35%. In cities like Baltimore, Detroit and Pittsburgh, Black unemployment is well over 45%. In New York, unemployment for Black men tops 51 percent and the national youth unemployment figure is nearly 80%. In the 1930s, government declared a national emergency when total unemployment reached 25%. Native Blacks are a labor class that the government and private industry are allowing to become obsolete while they reach out to foreign-born immigrants to fill shrinking employment opportunities.

The good news on unemployment last month was hidden beneath the official data. The Labor Department reported the national unemployment rate ticked down a tenth in July to 5.5 percent, a 33 month low. But the decline among the inactive unemployed was much greater. The inactive or "hidden" unemployed are people not currently looking for work, but who enter the job market in the hope of finding work when they see employment prospects improve. The inactive unemployed are not included in the official unemployment count, although the concept and measurement of hidden unemployment is well established in the economics literature.

Why are we supposed to feel so good when many of us are hurtin' so bad? Yes, the economy is clearly launched into a strong recovery, but that fact doesn't explain the large number of Americans who, statistics show, have a right to feel left out of the boom. Maybe the following term does. It's called "hidden unemployment. Last weekend, Treasury Secretary John Snow boisterously predicted that the U.S. economy should grow by more than 4 percent in the next few quarters. Snow said it is "reasonable" to expect the creation of between 200,000 and 300,000 jobs each month as the economy recovers. Meanwhile, the stock market seems headed north, and gas prices, while still ridiculously high, appear to have peaked and may be headed marginally lower.

America faces severe housing, financial, energy, food, unemployment and recessionary shocks. But legislators, bureaucrats and presidential candidates seem intent on making them worse, by imposing onerous climate change rules and restricting fossil fuel development and use. Even the White House now wants "reasonable and responsible" legislation, to avert a "regulatory nightmare" from overlapping state and federal climate rules. It falsely assumes costly federal regulations, emission mandates and hidden cap-and-trade taxes would be preferable.
In the height of the Great Depression, Myrna Jury was in economic despair, which explains her reply to the advertisement of a stranger who had run an ad in the Dec. 18, 1933, issue of the Canton (Ohio) Repository. The ad was titled "In Consideration of the White Collar Man!" and offered assistance from an anonymous source to families in need. Jury wrote and reported that her husband had been out of work three years but was now making "40 cents," adding, "We're in debt." The Jurys then had four children, including Charles, age 7. "They all need shoes and clothes, and Charles needs an overcoat." She mentioned that her spouse would not permit her to seek assistance for the clothes, hence her P.S.: "I decided to write without telling my husband.

It is likely that President Obama's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform will include a value-added tax (VAT) as part of a deficit-reduction package to be delivered after the November elections. The problem is that there is a fundamental flaw in the VAT that more than offsets its revenue-raising appeal: Increasing taxes on a particular activity produces less of that activity, and as a general rule, economies are less prosperous when value-added efforts decrease (or are hidden or disguised in order to evade taxes). Democrats certainly understand the nature of the relationship between taxes and behavior, as they push various sin taxes - on cigarettes, alcohol, sugary beverages, junk food, wealth accumulation, etc. It is far more logical, then, to assess an inverse value...
