41. So whose fault is it that the economy isn't creating jobs? The workers?

Is it the workers fault we have such high unemployment? Is it the government's fault?

Nope it is the "job creators" fault. They aren't hiring when they could be because they don't feel an incentive to. Their pessimism keeps them from investing and thus they stall our recovery.
