Barack Obama: Unemployment Benefits Are the “Biggest Boost” to the Economy (Video)

First it was Crackpot Pelosi. Then it was Majority Leader Steny Hoyer.

Now, Barack Obama is pushing the crazy idea that unemployment benefits are “the biggest boost that we can give to an economy.”
…We need more unemployed people. That’s the real problem!

From the video:

“This tax package does a couple of things immediately for economic growth in Florida. Number one, for those folks looking for work right now, it extends their unemployment benefits. Two million people across the country would lose their unemployment benefits at the end of this month if we did not move forward on this tax agreement. And economists say that not only is that good for those families, it’s good for the entire economy. It’s probably the biggest boost that we can give an economy because those folks are most likely to spend the money with businesses, and that gives them customers,” President Obama told Tampa Bay’s Channel 8.

And, you wonder why we are in the mess we are in?
