As some of you may know, before Lisa Jackson became the horribly destructive head of the EPA, she was the horribly destructive head of the NJ DEP. Search for her name in this blog for a few of the details on how her efforts have made life worse for everyone, and increased unemployment.
This WSJ editorial about how her department is specifically destroying jobs is so short and persuasive, that today on Squawk Box they ridiculed both the EPA and Ms. Jackson's personal views on economics and job creation.
I personally think it's a textbook example of how economically illiterate liberals cause us all vast indirect harm. Clearly she has never head of the broken window parable, or of Frederic Bastiat. But because of her illiteracy, we all get to pay a very real price.
In fairness, the title of this post might just be a cheap shot. The truth is, I don't think Lisa Jackson really wants you to be unemployed. What she wants is what most economically illiterate Democrats want. She wants everyone to be happy and prosperous with a unicorn in every garage and a rainbow in every pot.
But here in the real world she has to make choices. And weighed against her quest for personal glorification, and the pursuit of a world free from the polluting influence of modern man, she see's your continued unemployment as a small price to pay.

Innocent people are getting affected by these kind of head long fellows.
