When you get UE you gave to prove you apply to 10 places a week, idjits...
It's pretty interesting that everyone seems to just leave out the word "insurance" from this discussion.
Unemployment doesn't stimulate the economy.
Unemployment Insurance does.
Simple fact.

Jobless benefits. They are not referring to Unemployment Insurance at all.
Last summer, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney lectured Wall Street Journal reporter Laura Meckler for not knowing it "as part of the entrance exam" that jobless benefits are "one of the most direct ways to infuse money directly into the economy because people who are unemployed and obviously aren't running a paycheck are going to spend the money that they get."
Carney contended that "every place that that money is spent has added business, and that creates growth and income for businesses that leads them to decisions about jobs, more hiring."
Jobless benefits.
Don't you get tired of being irrational and ignoring facts?
The blogs point out Zandi's history of getting things totally wrong, providing perspective.I don't know how many their are, but I've already provided the writers of Moody's Analytical.
Feel free to provide an opposing view.
You don't know jack shit is what it comes down to. There aren't any. The article was an opinion piece by Mark Zandi, who is a progressive. The article is not from "Moody's" but from Moody's Analytics. Not the same thing.

Zandi is the most wrong person on the economy out there.
But the brain-dead progressives here cannot distinguish between fact and opinion. They cannot read and analyze. And when someone like Frank points out the obvious--that decreasing unemployment cannot increase unemployment--they are lost. No response other than to call names and deflect.
So, you complain about something being an Op-Ed, then provide a bunch of Op-Eds to attempt to prove your point? I noticed you haven't provided an "Op-Ed" from a respected economist that disagrees with Zandi's point, also.
When someone like Frank points out the "obvious" like "decreasing unemployment cannot increase unemployment", it's irrelevant, because that's not what's being discussed.
No one is claiming that it's better for someone to be on UI than actually be unemployed. We're arguing that it's more stimulating to the economy for someone who's unemployed to receive temporary assistance rather than not. People are going to be unemployed whether or not they're getting money from UI.
You understand you are not quoting "Moody's", right?
Forgive my imprecise language. I'm quoting Mark Zandi, who is the chief economist of Moody's Analytics (The Dismal Scientist: Economist Biographies). Moodys Analytics is the subsidiary of Moody's Investors Service (the latter commonly referred to as Moody's). Moody's itself would be an inferior source, since it focuses on bond rating and leaves this type of analysis to Moody's Analytics.
This thread is a classic example of USMB Right Wingnut Brigade tactics.
They take a statement and distort it in an effort to make a dishonestly framed argument. They then ignore all posts that shinee a light on their bullshit and/or respond with ad homs.
I have no words except heaven help us.: What a freaking economic policy!!!
White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett has adopted a stance on unemployment that is sure to infuriate many, arguing that it stimulates the economy because people who receive unemployment checks are going out and spending them, reports The Weekly Standard.
Here's another gem
People who receive that unemployment check go out and spend it and help stimulate the economy, so thats healthy as well,

There are millions of us standing with you.I think the reason there are so many Zombie movies and shows is to show us how dangerous Obama Followers have become. They have no ability to think, they simply act as instructed.
