And maybe you don't "get it", either. It's not only possible but pragmatic to start tackling unemployment from a local/community level. Not waiting for government stimulus or mega-corporations to lead the way, hoping it will trickle down. That hasn't worked very well.

For that bottom-up type of enterprise to work means consumers have to be smarter and choosier. Not just looking at a price tag at check-out, but also recognizing "hidden" costs and long term "prices" paid for the cheaper import.
