..........damn unemployed Americans! Just go back to work!

During a recent press briefing, White House press secretary Dana Peroxide suggested the Bush administration would oppose any effort to extend jobless benefits — a stance the White House has taken before. She explained their position by saying, “we want people to be able to return to the workplace as soon as possible.” The suggestion was that extending benefits somehow prevents people from returning to work. She concluded by saying that “the best way to help” the economy and unemployed people is for unemployed people to simply “get back to work. I like an easy fix to things - just go back to work and get off of the benefit train. ”This has been another episode of "It's NOT socialism if it benefits the wealthy".
