From Conservative commentator Ben Stein
"....here is an interesting note: there are high levels of unemployment but the employers I talk to say there are severe labor shortages of skilled labor at every level from carpenters and plumbers to CEO's of biotech companies. And, as noted before, in my small circle of friends, anyone who has good work skills and a decent personality can get a job. I am not talking about the national scene. Just my little world. The chronic complainers and the malcontents and the unrealistic are the ones who cannot find work they want. The people who really want to work can get work. It might not be great work, but it's work."

Sen. DeMint: "A Lot" Of Unemployed Americans Don't Want To Work -- Sept. 6. 2011
"It is fundamentally wrong to give people money for 99 weeks for doing nothing," -- Newt Gingrich 9/22/11
, "Here's the thing that bugs a lot of people; it certainly bugs me. It seems like the 99ers in particular are holding out for the right jobs. You guys talk about your advanced degrees and you can't take that kind of job or this kind of job. So it's incumbent upon the public to pay for you to sit at home until the right job comes along." -- Fox news about long turn unemployed
