President’s Weekly Address: “The Trickle Up, Then Down, Then Sort Of Up Again” Theory Of The Economy

Unemployment benefits give money to people who buy things. Things are bought from businesses. Businesses who make money when people buy things then hire the people who bought the things. And thus, the economy is fixed! Well that’s neat!! It stands to reason, then, that we should just give everybody a bunch of money and send them to Best Buy. Because magic!

Just one of the glories of living in a system where there is a never-ending and consequence-free flow of money just waiting for all of us, if only Republicans would stop clogging up the delivery system.
