Say what?!?!?

Appearing on CNBC on Friday, President Barack Obama’s Labor Secretary Hilda Solis said “millions of jobs” were saved when Congress extended unemployment benefits in the “fiscal cliff” deal.

“What I think about is those two million people that would have lost their unemployment insurance. Because think about it, all that money that goes out in terms of what is being spent by that unemployment check, helps to generate $2 back into the community. So small businesses, everyone continues to keep their jobs,” Solis said.

“Just by the movement that the president made, we saved millions and millions of jobs.”

Just plain nuts.

Unemployment insurance was supposed to be short term, temporary thing rather than a way of life.

It is now a 3 year benefit.

I call that welfare not unemployment.

Its a disgrace is what it is. Anyone that needs that much unemployment assistance is not looking hard enough, or they are lazy.

I too wonder where those benefits are going. In Kentucky, benefits has been cut out for just about everyone. The end of December marked the last of benefits whether they still had money in the system or not. Of course, Mitch McConnel is from our state too. Perhaps it's the McConnel effect. At anyrate, Kentucky isn't on this free ride. There are far more than 2 million unemployed in this country, so somebody is getting it....

Do the unemployment extensions have an affect on the former employers ?

The entire world economy is undergoing transformative changes that make the old rules no apply anymore.

The increased efficiency of production and shipping and distribution mean fewer workers are needed. Couple that with outsourcing, and you have a turbulent situation where certainties are a quaint relic of the past.

Hey to burst your retard bubble, but if Unemployment gets cut, then those people stop paying their bills (car, rent, cc's, tuition, groceries, etc etc) so yea, I know its hard for you guys to think in terms of systems, but extending unemployment most certainly keeps the economy stable.

but hurr durr muh free markets

What a pathetic example of circle jerking and complete lack of understanding of economics.

What's even more unpatriotic is your desire to see millions of people suffer just for your enjoyment of a few headlines of articles making the president (who I don't even like) look bad because you somehow think that you had a choice in who the president would be and are still butthurt more people didn't "vote him out" for the other neocon corporatist soon-to-be warmonger. Even if you DID have a choice, the options were so rigged that you never had options at all.

Yet millions of Americans not being able to put food on their table would be a victory because "that's what they get"? For not being on YOUR side?

Disgusting people here really.

I think most people see through the political charade. You are using the appeal to emotion tactic, charging that people want to see others suffer. They don't.

The issue is the obamists have constructed a Potemkin village and it is going to fall.

When that happens, and it will happen, many more than a few millions won't be able to put food on the table.

The only victory here would be acknowledging economic reality instead of lying for short term political gain.

See....what isn't obvious for the americans is for broken frenchy like me, like business is obvious for the americans and a simple sitcom for most of the frenchies in social systemic bondage, it's overdue time to wake up on both sides, and for all the competent goodhearted brothers and sisters of the world.

Globalism is a piracy scheme, it serves only those that have lost their souls, or replaced it with their overexpanded greedy egos.

Everything is clear now, they're about to take you to war, young adults nobodies are poised to die to serve megalomaniac devils, that would certainly laugh and get schyzofrenic looking at the growing global suffering and pain, give up everything that feeds the monster, we would then finally prevail for what is worth.
