I don't really. I mean, clearly politicians are going to try to take advantage of what the feelings of the public are on key issues. They're going to try to reach those voters. But Al Gore didn't create this level of economic anxiety. George Bush didn't create some of the sentiments he's trying to appeal to about how government sometimes screws things up.
Politicians have to play with the hand they're dealt.
And the hand their dealt today suggests that even though, again, the last few years have been pretty good, there are these underlying difficulties, anxieties, problems that they want politicians to help them solve. And that's what politicians need to target, and I think if they don't, they will be in some trouble. They wouldn't have felt some of those problems as greatly, particularly let's start with child care. In fact, the average hours of work of middle-income families with kids are up 500 hours since 1979. That's about three months of full-time work.
