Pelosi: Job Creation Confusion

Jul 3, 2010   //   by Christian Hine   //   Christian Hine, National  //  No Comments

If I hadn’t seen and heard it myself I would have never believed it: Nancy Pelosi, telling America that unemployment benefits are, “One of the biggest stimulus’s to our economy.”

Wait – it gets better.

Speaker Pelosi went on to say that unemployment benefits are actually “job creating” and that unemployment benefits “create jobs faster than almost any other initiative you can name.”

Let’s get this straight. When you lose your job and start collecting unemployment benefits, it stimulates the economy AND creates jobs?

So the logical conclusion is: the more people lose their jobs; the more jobs will be created – and the economy gets a big boost?

OK – I’m totally confident in Democrat leadership now.
