Pelosi: Extending Unemployment Benefits Would Create ‘600,000 Jobs’

(CNSNews.com) -- House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said that extending unemployment benefits would add “600,000 jobs to our economy.”

She also said that the money from unemployment benefits creates a “safety net” for the U.S. economy because it “injects demand into the economy -- creating jobs.”

How exactly does taking money from working individuals and giving it to non-working individuals create jobs? Is "unemployed" now officially a job title? There is no money injected into the economy; it is simply taken from someone and given to someone else. Legalized theft is what it is!

Yes it is a job title. Why look for work when the government will support you. I've been hearing that very thing from a lot of people. They just sit home and do nothing. What are we becoming.

As for Pelosi? She's an idiot in the first degree.

Have a terrific day. :)
