it's funny, you do search asking if unemployment grows the economy, and the first result is nancy pelosi saying just that. so, riot is saying it's from economists, when in fact she's just repeating what pelosi said. all these links purporting to show the truth in fact are just to support the dems case, and riots/pelosis' agenda. an agenda which is probably beyond most of our ken, as riot so succinctly put it a few pages ago. in a way, she's right. i can't quite wrap my head around people being on the dole as being a good thing that grows the economy. it might keep the economy where it's at previous to unemployment being cut for people who've met their 99 weeks, but how will it grow it?? but if pelosi and riot say it's so, it must be. makes you wonder why, with so many on unemployment for 2+years, we aren't seeing the corresponding growth. http://hotair.com/archives/2010/07/0...-economy-evah/

![]() Tell what happened with the government-funded scientists? The leaked climate change e-mails? All the science was found sound after investigation by 4 or 5 different multi-national panels, wasn't it?

![]() Same goes for people with Govt. jobs. They are paying their taxes with tax dollars. People with private sector jobs are paying their taxes with non-tax dollars. Simple logic would tell you that private sector jobs would be better for the economy in general, and the Govt. in particular. Yes I realize that Unemployment bennies are taxed as income. In New York anyway.

![]() the avg salary here in arkansas is several thou per year lower than the avg govt salary here. it's the same all over, with the govt paying far more for the same position than private business. why? govt pay should match the avg for that position.

![]() Take away those unemployment checks, and you have lost all that spending. You have people living in the street, and nobody buying groceries, and thus those jobs providing groceries are threatened and lost. Is this really that hard to understand? This isn't politics It's high school Economics 101.

As I said before, all spending isn't necessarily very economical stimulating. Endorsing an extention because it is the right thing to do in a moral sense is defendable. Saying that we should extend them because it is good for the economy is not. |

Pelosi is repeating what the economists say, too. If you would like to dismiss economic realities as untrue, support your contention and post something from Bloomberg or WSJ or any other economic think tank that shows paying unemployment during high unemployment times doesn't help keep the economy going. We'll wait .... Quote:
The GOP hasn't voted for unemployment benefit extension as they are holding out for their tax cuts for the rich.
