>> Let me clear up your confusion. The feds are spending less on the states.

Okay, douchebag. Clear it up. Hopefully, you'll understand if I'd like to see some source OTHER THAN YOU.

"More than 1.3 million unemployed workers won't be getting their next round of unemployment benefits, after Congress failed again to pass an extension bill Wednesday night. With Congress taking a Fourth of July recess, those hoping to get their benefits reinstated will have to wait until at least July 12th, when Congress comes back in session to pick up the issue.

The main holdup is coming from Republicans, who have filibustered the bill three times. They say paying for the benefits by adding to the national debt is unacceptable. Instead they propose using the leftover money from last year's economic recovery package to pay for the bill. For now, Democrats have rejected that offer."


That IN NO WAY suggests, nor can you infer from it, that the amount of money in unemployment benefits is LESS than before. Keeping in mind that they're ALREADY extended benefits to 10x the original intent of the program (it started at 13 weeks).

It is nothing short of absurd to suggest that our country, which is already broke, should be borrowing money FROM OUR CHILDREN to pay people NOT TO WORK. Still, we are doing it at unprecedented levels.

I asked you to provide some kind of proof for your statement. At this point, given your failure to do so, I would have just declare you to be a liar. Oh, crap. Big surprise. Another liberal liar?
