5. Seems
I regularly talk with my very conservative neighbors(in a deep red county, in a red state). For various reasons, like they need a job, they remember how such job creation brought us out of the Great Depression, a sense of frustration after having tried everything else, these people are now openly speaking of spending a massive sum on a true jobs creation program. An editorial in my local small town paper called for such a program. People are starting to wake up to the fact that this economy is not going to recover unless employment is addressed in a meaningful, effective manner. There is only one way such a problem can be addressed.

...the solution is to get these people to start talking to their elected representatives. Better yet, vote them out if they don't approve of progressive solution to jobs.
