LittleWyvern Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 How many Americans are there anyway?Ben RainesLet me put it this way. If this rate were true, the entire world would be out of jobs in a little over a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenRaines Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 I knew it was a little over 300,000,000. So all of us, man, woman and child are losing our jobs at least once a month and half of us twice a month. Scary thought. Ben Raines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elphaba Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 (edited) "Every month that we do not have an economic recovery package 500 million Americans lose their jobs." - Speaker of the House; Nancy PelosiWhat's really sad is she has said it more than once....... This is absurd. As best as I can tell, she first said this on January 18 in a Fox interview with Chris Wallace:PELOSI: But in terms of what we have to do in the first 100 days, we must address the needs of this country. Five hundred million people will lose their jobs each month until we have an economic package.CHRIS WALLACE, HOST: No, 500,000.PELOSI: What did I say, millionWALLACE: Yes, 500 million. That would really be a recession.PELOSI: Oh, no. Excuse me. Thank you for correcting me.WALLACE: Yes.PELOSI: It feels like 500 million. Five hundred thousand Americans will lose their jobs each month until we have a recovery package.I would have no problem with her saying this if that had been the only time she needed to thank someone for correcting her, but this is obviously a side-step where her “gaffe,” was really closer to “graft.”I thought only Bush was stupid and used fear tactics???He was/is stupid, and he did use manipulative scare tactics. Just because Pelosi has done it doesn't mean Bush didn't do it first.Hmm . . . you know the more I think about this, I think we're looking at this the wrong way.It's obvious she was the grasshopper to Bush the master. In fact, looking at this in context, I think it is unkind to blame Pelosi for her obvious (ly manipulative) mistake. I know you know what I mean: thousands, millions, billions.Trllions. They were one and the same to Bush. Pelosi saw it work for at least six years, so who can blame her for trying to do the same? Unbelievable.ElphabaPS: It has also occurred to me that Wallace is as obtuse as she is: 500 million would be a recession?
