Job growth is the honey for voters' vinegar

By Money Matters Editors

Tea Partiers. People upset at the Fed. People who want to put term limits on Congress. You name it: the United States abounds in vocal, but for the most part thinly-supported critics.

And although their complaints run the gamut of the political, social, and cultural spectrum, they all really come down to one aspect of American life: the economy. And regarding the economy, the issue of jobs is front and center.

Some critics want to replace Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, who, by the way, was just selected Time Magazine’s “Person of the Year” for 2009. Money Matters Editors wholeheartedly agrees with the selection: it is deserved.
