Americans tried to other "solutions" peddled by politicians, economists, NYT and other pundits. In fact losing jobs and trying those other solutions is how they got here...

Those other solutions suck even more.

Except for a close to 10% that does as good as ever and even better, and who are the ones proposing those other "solutions"...

Do you have any constructive suggestions to add, or just cynicism?

An observation of the situation is more constructive than such thought-stopping questions, even if it doesn't offer a solution.

Spotting a problem usually precedes solutions anyway.

Its not a thought stopping question, I'm asking you to put some thought into it and propose some solutions.

Or at least make your complaint a little specific, like what was tried, what didn't work, etc. As it stands, it's just whining about the general state of things, which I would say isn't actually very useful, unless the goal is to mope collectively.
