LOGICAL 'Social' Engineering
    The commie-libs among us have long depended upon social engineering to both placate and increase their voter base.  The 'modern era' of commie-lib social engineering is generally associated with the "Slick-Willie" presidency; largely with their sham of reducing the welfareRAT rolls.  The Clinton Administration along with the Newt Gingrich-led House, did little more than move the 'RATs from the welfare rolls to the SSI rolls-with the goal of the continuation and growth of 'dependency-class' Americans.
    Now, fast-forward to the "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, the Narcissist" Regime.  The regime's notion of 'social engineering' vastly outpaces the "Slick-Willie" concept.  Not only does the "Clown" both continue and inhance the numbers of individual recipients of monetary benefits, he extends it to unsustainable--quasi-experimental--solar and wind energy production as well as payoffs to several of his 'favorite' politicians:  Anyone remember the vote-buying payoffs involved with owe-bamaKare?!?  Senator Mary Landreau ring a bell?!?
    With "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, the Narcissist" building on his successes (of national destruction) by gutting the Defense Department, here comes my suggestion of LOGICAL social engineering:
With the lagging NON-recovery; with the problematic U-3 unemployment rate in the 8.5% range; with the more accurate, actual U-6 unemployment rate in the 23% range, actually consider the short, mid and long term effects of military "down-sizing"  (reduction-in-force [RIF]) relative to the unemployment rates.  Currently, approximately 80,000 military "souls" have--or are scheduled to have--their asses 'kicked-to-the-curb,' both the decision for the RIF as well as the numbers involved in said RIF should be relative to the current and projected U-3 and U-6 unemployment rates.  A U-3 rate of 4.5% is considered full employment.  Have the RIF figures be based on national full employment, example:  if the fascists want to dis-employ 100,000 military "souls," they should do so at 4.5% unemployment;  85,000 at 5.0%;  70,000 at 5.5%;  55,000 at 6.0%;  40,000 at 6.5%;  25,000 at 7.0%;  10,000 at 7.5% and ZERO at 8.0% and above!!
    Not only have the vast majority of said "souls" put their lives-on-the-line on a minute-by-minute basis, they are subjected to long tours of duty away from family and friends; subjected to international moves with minimal notice!  Given these military "souls" do the work "most Americans won't do," do they deserve to be tossed out of a chosen career 'on their proverbial asses?!?'  I think NOT!!!
