I really like Ben Stein. However I have to disagree about the length of unemployment. I hold a masters degree and have an excellent work history. I have been out of work for over 7 months. Two of my friends have been out of work for 9 months and I know many others that have been unemployed for well over 6 weeks..

This was early in 2008. At the time of his speech that was still probably true. He was wrong about the severity of the downturn. But he was going off of history. We are in uncharted waters here. The problem is the Government is hindering our ability for a recovery and the American people just don't seem to realize this.

You're an idiot. Find out what credit default swaps mean. Find out about the trillion dollars of subprime damage that Stein only says is $100 billion. Find out that we still got another trillion and half of damage to go. watch?v=iUuROWEMjm0
