CNN's Romans: Unemployment Benefits Extension 'Would Not Come Out of Your Pocket and My Pocket'

- "It would not come out of your pocket and my pocket. But it would be the third extension here, Heidi."

This one is definitely a LWNJ. If it isn't coming out iof your pocket and it isn't coming out of my pocket, where the hell is it coming from. Is she like every other left wing loon who thinks the government MAKES money?

    Excuse me? Not coming out of my pocket? If it's not, it's only because my pockets are already empty! I have to laugh at this one!

    "It would not come out of your pocket and my pocket."

    That's because they take it before it ever hits your pocket and my pocket!

    Somebody call Clue Man, we have a damsel in distress!

    So...the businesses are paying for the apparently never ending extension of unemployment benefits, but they can't really increase their pricing to absorb it because of the state of the economy, so that means they must cut elsewhere,leading to tah dah...higher unemployment numbers. Which, because now they have to pay for MORE people on unemployment, just increases their costs again, which they still can't pass on. So if they continue to struggle b/c the govt keeps extending their requirement to pay unemployment benefits, then eventually they will stop struggling, and die. And then who pays?

    That is exactly what the government is doing, printing money at furious rate with no backing. So in her eyes, there is plenty of money to go around. What shocks me is she is probably college educated but to be this stupid or just plane gullible is totally rediculous. Doesn't she understand, the american people usually don't pay attention but they sure are now. This administrations grap for power and ripping down capitalism is really making people nervous. More and more americans are catching on to all the shinagins of the likes of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. I would guess whenever they come up for election, these folks are in big trouble.

    Remember when the dollar was backed by gold in fort knox. Now its back by the american people. China is buying up gold, why because they want to get away from the u.s. dollar. So what does that tell you our money is dropping lower and lower on all money exchanges in the world

    It's not coming out of our pockets because the government spent that long ago. It is probably being borrowed from China... Can someone actually believe that the government can just print more?? Hey maybe it will come out of Obama money... you know, his "stash". STOP THE MADNESS.
