Quoted: My head hurts from the stupidity I just encountered. People who are THAT dumb work at the White House? No, it is just like the people who think that businesses pay taxes. "They" have created so many dumb people, that they can get away with saying anything, no matter how stupid, and logic will never enter into the conversation. |

Because a lot more package stores open up while people sit home on their butts drinking all day.
Quoted:
Obama has solved our financial problems! Real Clear Politics Video at linked source. Carney: Unemployment Benefits Could Create Up To 1 Million Jobs "I understand why extending unemployment insurance provides relief to people who need it, but how does that create jobs," Wall Street Journal's Laura Meckler asked Jay Carney at Wednesday's WH briefing. Carney responded: "Oh, uh, it is by, uh, I would expect a reporter from the Wall Street Journal would know this as part of the entrance exam." "There are few other ways that can directly put money into the economy than applying unemployment insurance," Carney said. Carney answers the question: "It is one of the most direct ways to infuse money directly into the economy because people who are unemployed and obviously aren't running a paycheck are going to spend the money that they get. They're not going to save it, they're going to spend it. And with unemployment insurance, that way, the money goes directly back into the economy, dollar for dollar virtually." "Every place that, that money is spent has added business and that creates growth and income for businesses that leads them to decisions about jobs, more hiring. So, there are few other ways that can directly put money into the economy than applying unemployment insurance, Carney said. Carney says President Obama is pushing for unemployment benefits to be extended "as we continue to emerge from this recession." Carney also says this is only one item of a "variety of things to grow the economy and create jobs." "This is one thing that economists of all stripes agree will directly affect growth, a half-percentage point I believe, economists believe is the payroll tax cut," Carney also said. Carney estimates that unemployment benefits could create up to one million jobs. However, then he talks about how a possible natural disaster could hurt US economy as well as the global economy. |

Heres my question to that gigantic fucktard, if extending the benefits would create 1 million jobs, where are the jobs from the previous two extensions?? oh that's right, it's nothing but bullshit coming from that fuckstain administration. We're going to have tear down the White House when Barry shoves off and goes back to Shitcago, as thats the only way to get rid of the shit smell coming from 1600 Penn. Ave.

If they really wanted to cut unemployment, there are 4 super effective things they could do:
1. Eliminate minimum wage 2. Eliminate food stamps and unemployment benefits 3. Close the border, create a snitch program to rat out employers who employ illegals 4. Get rid of Obamacare, just say 'Sorry, we were wrong, never mind' |

Of course he leads with an insult to discredit a question since he didn't actually have an answer. It's the norm for dumbasses who aren't intelligent at all and use their emotions for their political views and that's it. Then when you actually give them a good rebuttal, they somehow take offense to it as if you insulted them and then they play the victim card even though they insulted you the first time they responded.

And Bear Gryllis drinks his own urine when he is out in the wild, and can't find another "water source".
That's pretty much what they are suggesting, from an economic standpoint. Problems include You will come to a point where urine will not satisfy your need for liquids. Every time it cycles trhough some is lost, sweat, spillage, evoparation, And IT"S URINE. But by all means don't try to find potable water. |

Remember this nugget from Nancy Pelosi?
"Unemployment insurance, the economists tell us, return $2 for every $1 that is put out there for unemployment insurance," Speaker Nancy Pelosi said on the House floor. "It injects demand into the economy, it creates jobs to help reduce the deficit," Pelosi said. Pelosi says "history shows" tax cuts do not create jobs. "It does not create jobs. I mention this because this is the context in which we bring up this tax cut for middle-income families in America today," she said. |

Person makes $60k with a job and spends it on essentials + toys.
Person becomes unemployed. Person pulls in $20k on unemployment (very generous). Person spends $20k on essentials only. Other person making toys loses job, gets unemployment. Lather - rinse - repeat |
