“I haven’t talked to any who are of that mind,” said Hoyer. “If you talk to economists, they will tell you there are two things that are the most stimulative that you can do — one’s unemployment insurance, the other’s food stamps, okay?”

This completely overlooks the fact that in order to pay these you have to take the money OUT of the economy to begin with in the form of taxes! Sheesh!

Not even CLOSE to “okay” you Magnificent Obtuse Parasitic Dumbass.

Your “economists” are simply fiscally ignorant propagandists for the dead end collectivist economy.

Give them tenure, titled poistions in the Politburo and shiny socialist prizes, and they’ll repeat their surreal economic garbage, ad nauseum.

In the old days you did (and that's the way it should be)...now they just print more money...alas, there is no way to stop them.

It also overlooks the fact that what really drives the economy is the creation of value.

It is really disheartening to think we are a nation led by 537 idiots just like this.

If more government spending was an answer, there wouldn’t be a question to begin with.
