She repeated this meme back in 2010. Kinda telling when she reveals in a backhanded manner that she prefers people “depend on” the government (i.e. be dependent on). It truly is a wonder that she gets away with going on like Marie Antoinette for so long.

If “Unemployment benefits” are so great for the economy, why limit them to the unemployed?

These who think Pelosi is an ignorant slut, stupid, idiot, moron are not understanding how libtards like her think...they are missing the mark

She is not these things...

She does not care what the conservative base or even the RINO base think of her statements...she is not embarrassed to say these things because "the end justify the means" is part of her dictum...

Her statements are purely for her moonbat base...they buy her pablum...because they are low information voters and actually believe what she says....and live in her district...

I work for a State Dept. of Labor and Industry and run the Federal extended UC program. I see many people who think they can just ride on UC and then when it runs out go and find a job. I keep reminding them of how mistaken they are. I also see many who wont take a job with a lesser salary as well and end up finding nothing.

Despite the knee-jerk, agonized cries and wailing that are made whenever the word “tariffs” are used, the question has to be raised: “How ‘unthinkable’ are they, really?”

For all the “dollar signs in the eyes accompanied by ‘ka-ching sounds” you observe from the proponents of “free trade”, everyone should note that only *they* seem to make a lot of money in the deal, whereas everyone else gets screwed, our industries getting outsourced, our unemployment skyrocketing, and our standard of living dropping.

So, how helpful to typical Americans is membership in the WTO, NAFTA, GATT, FTAA, and now the TPP? Yeah, in the short term, Wal-Mart is filled to the brim with Chinese made products. But if you are unemployed, with no job prospects, and taxes subsidizing other countries economies, how better off are you?

Imagine if we were to just leave several of these “free trade” agreements, and pass some tariff laws against foreign produced products being dumped on our market for far less than we could make it?

Granted, it would be like shoving a red hot poker up the bottom of the internationalists. But then again, they don’t support our country in the first place, do they?
