Final BI


In the Washington Post column by Robert Samuelson entitled Bernie Sanders's Job Guarantee: Is it a Boondoggle (May 6, 2018), why does Samuelson appear to be dubious about Bernie Sanders's suggestion to reach full employment? Do you think most informed Americans would agree that Samuelson's doubts are warranted? Provide examples from any of your reading, your conversations with other Americans or your experience to support your evaluation of the author's assertion.
