It does. For the bureaucrats who administer it.
And, in their own enlightened self-interest, they wouldn't want unemployment to go down, because that might mean they'd lose their own job. Such is the "big lie" of bureaucracy - they don't want to solve the problem they're working on. In fact, they get more job security if the problem gets worse.
bump
Of course - it all comes from the Great Unicorn.
We need to give Obama a taste of unemployment. Let him see how it feels to lose his job.
Let’s break some windows and get the glass boys economically stimulated!
Actually, he will be proven right, right after he is unemployed as president.
As far as I know there are no unemployment offices anymore. Everything is either done online or over the phone
Phones, the Internet. Well, there's 2 new things Obama can blame for this depression.
He's already used ATM Machines

“Such is the “big lie” of bureaucracy - they don’t want to solve the problem they’re working on.”
BINGO!!!! IMO this is and will be the best post of the day. It is so true — you must have worked around bureaucrats like I have. Rarely, if ever, do they show any real compassion for their constituients.
However, their energy and enginuity are amazing when it comes to protecting and expanding their job security and organizational empires. The worst thing that can happen to a bureaucrat is for their program to be scaled back or shut down.
Well, there is always the opportunity to put everyone on welfare. That'll grow the Kenyanesian Economy fur sure.
GREAT ASININE POLITICAL QUOTESUnemployment checks are the fastest way to create jobs.
-- Nancy Pelosi, Jul 2, 2010
Sure unemployment creates jobs... jobs for government workers that are needed to run the support system the the Naked Emperor wants to set up to make permanent joblessness just another lifestyle choice...
Then why haven’t they. If that was true, there should be no unemployment and I mean that literally. Don’t you agree?
When up is down and right is left it all makes sense.
Future people will look at quotes like these in shock.
This period of history will be seen as a time when moral corruption hit the singularity.
They are scrambling to make sure that they spend all of the remaining FY10 $$. The current FY ends Sep 30th and they scramble to spend it all so their budget is reduced for FY11 as of Oct 1st.
