….unemployment remains, at 9.1%, unacceptably high. It seems that the high jobless numbers catch the administration by surprise each month.

But they shouldn’t.

History is a guide. Spain’s green economy program destroyed 2.2 jobs for every green job it created.

Meanwhile, the Italians put into a single green job the same amount of capital needed to create almost five jobs in the general economy.

A green economy, it seems, is scarcely better than a red one.
