Duh… Pelosi Calls For Tax Cut Extensions For 160,000,000 Working Americans – Too Bad There Are Only 140,500,000 Americans Working Today
Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, December 21, 2011, 8:29 PM
Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi told reporters this week that 160 million Americans will have their taxes increased if the payroll tax cut extension does not pass.
160,000,000 working Americans?
That’s more Americans than there are in the entire work American workforce.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are only 140.5 million Americans employed today.
Thanks to Pelosi and Barack Obama the work force is at its lowest rate in years.
By the way… 3,000 mainstream media outlets ran with this bogus number.

no, no, no, this is their “new” math! you know, the math system where any number can mean “any” thing, it doesn’t need to add up, subtract properly, no multiplication or division complications, etc. it’s similar to algebra, where a letter can be “any” number. now any number can mean “any” thing the proglibtards want it to!!! just look at all the great examples piglosi’s already given us, every dollar of unemployment equals 2 dollars of spending ability, extending unemployment benefits equals over 600K new jobs, etc!! see, any number really can mean “any” thing!!!!
Jim commented:
Nancy, the San Francisco Treat, Pelosi is using “Chicago” voting numbers, you know, the dead vote.
Patty commented:
She had to say this before she read it, the employment figures that is.
Seems this is taste of how things will get better the closer we get to election time. The numbers for unemployed will get down to 8%, or better, economic growth will be better and the Obama media will speak of him like he has parted the seas.
Obamas regulation destroy jobs commented:

The woman has lost her mind.
Can you imagine what would happen if people would begin to pray to remove the evil, the hate, the lies, the greed that she holds in her heart, soul, mind and body?
#1AMERICAN commented:

Tom Whitcomb commented:
Give her a break, it’s Nancy Pelosi, she never get facts right.
eddie commented:
Maybe she’s counting all the dead people who somehow are still able to vote democratic.
squeaky commented:
20 million imaginary jobs….hmmm. must be the those “jobs created” that the drive-bys mention when they blow through here. and would those 3,000 mainstream media outlets be fed by the AP?
bandit commented:
Her supporters like the higher number.
egoist commented:
From the human that claims unemployment checks = employment.
James commented:
Perhaps Pelosi was the inspiration for that Barbie that said “Math is hard!”
Mike Whitty commented:
Maybe she’s counting the 19.5 million additional workers who would be in the labor force if her immigration policies were in effect?
MassJim commented:
Does your 140.5 million workers include state and local workers from Massachusetts as well as a few other states that do not participate in social security and are therefore not effected by the tax.
Ben commented:
How many of the 140k work for the government and don’t pay Social Security?
gloria commented:
Obama used that figure { 160 million} before Pelosi did. I wondered at the time why noone was challenging him on that number.
jaycee commented:
She is including the ones getting paid under the table, but those workers pay no taxes already so they should not count.
