Ironically, the unemployed/underemployed are healthcare workers, an industry that the feds now have their hands all over! Unfortunately, with the low reimbursement rates from many of these federally funded programs, most organizations can no longer carry the salaries of many professionals, so many are being let go or cuts are being made in various ways that will ultimately negatively impact the consumer. Many jobs performed previously by highly trained professionals are now being taken over by barely more than high school graduates - scary, indeed! Govt involvement does not often, if ever, result in higher standards, better service, or better quality.
