wtf? shrub didn't have anything to do with oil prices more than doubling at the same time alan greenspan was raising interest rates, which is what got us into this mess.Take, for example, the sad case of the Bush family. When Poppy Bush was president, unemployment hit a generational high of over 9 million Americans. Bill Clinton, through education and hard work, put more than 3 million of those citizens back on the job.
Now Bush Junior, repeating his family pattern of joblessness, has presided over the return of unemployment for 9 million Americans.
This was not unexpected, sociologists warn us. Hard core unemployment, through failed schooling and a don't-care attitude, takes on a nearly genetic character. The acorn falls only so far from the tree. Especially when the nut falls on its head.

Another victory for Bush and his war against the middle class.
Someday hopefully people will wake up.

the doubling happened over the course of 1999 and 2000. significantly higher energy costs plus higher nominal money costs are two things that make for a pretty decent recessionary push.
shiner rules!
