[Extending jobless benefits again would stimulate the economy by putting money in the pockets of people not getting paychecks, Price said. "Almost 100 percent of that is going to be spent," he said. ]
The Bush administration has seen the loss of about 3 million American jobs (a disproportionate amount of middle-class jobs), but only seem to be working on creating jobs for illegals (oops... they are all legal now, voila!), H1B visa workers, Communist Chinese, Indians, Iraqis, Pakistanis, etc.
How does that go again?

Where'd you get it from? It looks like it came from that wierd, old-fashioned and certainly outdated document from ages ago.

MSNBC just mention that the unemployment rate is only going down because of the increasing number of workers who have "given up" - 300,000 by their count.
Personally, I think there are probably a lot more than that. But we haven't given up, we are still looking - we just don't get any more benefits.
