i think a more pointed and poignant line about that shadowy scapegoat known as "the economy" is "hiring man said 'son if it was up to me.'" it's saying the same thing as the line in "the river," but this time there's someone actually saying it rather than it just being so. it's a human moment and it's delivered nonjudgmentally. should we be angry at the hiring man, or should we feel sorry for him too?

Was emailing with a friend of mine in France and mentioned that I'm looking for a teaching job but don't expect to find one for next year because hardly any jobs are being posted. She just emailed back to ask why, and honestly the best I can do is, "Uh, idk, the economy?"
