Yeah, but you said it "doesn't make a lot of sense " and what this guy pointed out was a logical possible senerio.

and I don't see unemployment lower.....

i didn't necessarily agree with the stimulus, but i would be hard pressed to say it 'made' unemployment go up. unemployment did go up-would it have done so regardless, probably. would it have gone up higher without the stimulus-maybe. but to say it made the jobless rate go up-come on.
