1.59 million out of work, requiring some sort of survival finances, probably purchasing next to nothing.

"Add the multiplier effect of other jobs dependent on these jobs for their own existence -- in construction, retail, restaurants, and so on -- and you've easily exceeded 3 million jobs, perhaps 4 million."

How does that affect your standard of living, between inevitably increased taxes and loss of income to your employer, possibly costing you your pay, or even your job?

If you'd let 'em sink, you'd get sucked down the whirlpool, too.
