What we need is a "21st Century Full Employment Act for Peace and Prosperity" which would make it a mandatory requirement that the president and Congress attain and maintain full employment.

Back to Joe Biden's "drop-kick"

Joe Biden might be better off describing the way the stock market is bouncing around like a football after it is "dropped" to the ground and comes bouncing off the ground for the kick... seems like not even the usual capitalist sooth-Sayers can get their foot on this "ball"... perhaps Biden should become a soccer fan... the ball might be a little easier to control with his feet and he wouldn't have to worry about taking his foot out of his mouth.

Hey, Joe, when do you think the stock market will bounce up high enough for you to make that successful "drop-kick."
