FOXNews.com - Pelosi: Unemployment Checks Fastest Way to Create Jobs

Quote:
Unemployment benefits are creating jobs faster than practically any other program, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday.

Actually, she is right -- if more money circulates inot the economy, it will stimulate spending and create some new jobs and hiring.

It's part of the neo-Keynesian cult, and it's a "hip" philosphy if you live in CA.

Not when UE is only 1/3 of your salary. With that you can barely make ends meet. People are using up their 401K's and other savings and skipping bills and mortgage payments.
