Recommendation
Several years since the Great Recession began, the US jobs market is still lagging. Economist Heidi Shierholz argues that the government must generate demand and that its first step should be to reinstate the unemployment insurance extension benefits it rescinded in December 2013. getAbstract recommends this well-reasoned treatise to economy watchers and to US policy makers, who want for an alternative view on how to create a job-rich recovery.
