Stephan:   Jobless is not just an American problem, it is a global issue, with global implications. There are a small group of families who, as the medieval Japanese used to say, 'live above the clouds,' while the rest of the world grubs in the dirt of daily life. I now see this as a growing trend of social revolution. When added to climate change and the food and water crises, one has a mix almost guaranteed to produce social upheaval.
