The Most Outrageously Outrageous Stat Counting Ever

Now these are OUTRAGEOUS stats.

The White House has come up with a new spin on jobs created or saved and well … imagine you’re in an economics class and you turn in a paper that says this. Now imagine your Professor laughing (yes, even the liberal ones), and then imagine the “F” you are going to get on your transcript.

Hot Air has this covered. I post it only because you must not miss it. Because for sure … if I didn’t point it out you most assuredly would believe it’s made up.

Now … your job has been “saved” if you got a raise. No really. Stop laughing. Come on. Stop it. I am writing here. I’m, um, uh … ahhh, bawahahahahahahaha.

Seriously, this administration believes that if people were stupid enough to vote for the man-child that they are stupid enough to believe anything it shovels at them.

The first rule of those who benefit from the cult of personality: Never believe your own press clippings.

Except it really isn’t funny. Consider we have the Vice President if the US out selling this hogwash to everyone in sight, and the joke’s all on him because nobody is buying this crap.

It counts any pay raise as a job saved. I know many, many people, including everyone at my company who has taken a pay cut. Do they then count us as jobs lost?

If you have a job, it’s because Barry either created or saved it.

It’s only fair that he takes half your paycheck to give to the entitled dependents who are so proud of the work he’s done that they aren’t even asking him to create or save them a job.

By that reasoning, I am a supermodel because a PORTION of me weighs as much as a supermodel does. (Ok, it’s my right thigh, but hey, who’s keeping track here?)

I'm wondering if I can claim any of these people as dependents on my income tax?

You have it backwards. The fact that you get up every day and work for a living is what gives them a claim in your life.

They’re sitting at home (subsidized by you) watching a TV their credit card company can’t charge them for not paying off, and waiting to be sent part of your paycheck in the mail.

The fact that you’ll work your whole life to fund their lifestyle, whether you desire to or not, should be reward enough for you.
