Molly Ivins Followup
A followup on yesterday’s entry: I looked into the claim in Molly Ivins’ column about classifying fast food jobs as manufacturing jobs. I found another description of it which indicated that it was a statement made in hypothetical terms by Bush’s top economic adviser. So I’m not really clear on the actual context – it sounds like it might have been more of a gaffe than a serious policy proposal. But it’s safe to say that it was a really dumb thing to put out there.
