I hope that's what Zuckerman told Obama

[T]here are policies we could be pursuing to bring unemployment down. These policies would be unorthodox — but so are the economic problems we face. And those who warn about the risks of action must explain why these risks should worry us more than the certainty of continued mass suffering if we do nothing.

Just off topic, but Zuckerman is on his way to China. And he's already been publicly backpedaling fast about Facebook's utility for democratic revolution in the Middle East.

I will bet a $100 that's he's going to tell them: hey dudes, notice that Syria and these other countries figured out how to use Facebook to arrest dissidents and track dissident networks very effectively, so there's no reason not to let us do business here. I'm sure you can make it work for you.

And with this, he will sell out hundreds of millions of people in one capital-sucking moment.
