Hoes that deflation looking for japan and now the EU potentially? Talk about huge amounts of lost potential with very high unemployment rates. That's real people who cannot work even though they want to. Horrible waste of life. Anyone with 1 year unemployment will have a much lower chance if a job once the economy is back to "normal"
