House of Cards – Fox on Underwood’s jobs plan

Spoiler alert: Frank Underwood’s economic policy in “House of Cards” is crazy.

At least it is through the first four episodes, which is all my binge has so far taken in.

With 18 months left in the White House, the fictional president on Netflix wants to add 10 million jobs. That’s over half a million jobs a month. Oh, and he wants to cut Social Security (no big deal). And all as a presumably lame-duck president.
