Where is the support for your argument? Change my mind. Go ahead. Show me something from an economist that says that tossing people off unemployment and taking away that cash infusion doesn't harm and slow the economy, and doesn't cause increased joblessness in other industries as that unemployment money is taken out of circulation.
Adam Smith could rise from the dead and not be able to change your mind.

Seriously I posted a very good piece on why extending the tax cuts for everyone was a positive thing and you dismissed it out of hand as theoretical. Now you want me to provide theoreticl arguments to counter your theoretical arguments? It is pointless to try to debate with you anyway.

You keep posting hysterical rants about how bad and dumb and out of touch and evil the GOP is for not extending the unemployment benefits when it is pretty much a given that they are simply using them as a tactic to get something they want (the tax cut extention). They use something the Dems want to get something they want. The cutting spending to match the benefits was just rhetoric.

The Christian Science news piece quoting politicians? Is that what you are referring to?

Did you read the Christian science thing? it simply talks about a deal looming on extending the tax cuts and the unemployment benefits.

Yeah, that's why I asked you what you were referring to, because that wasn't "a good article in support".
