I am conceding that it raises the defecit and is bad for the budget.

But 'spend' to me means sending out money. Extending the unemployment benefits certainly counts as spending. Merely increasing debt, not so much.

But hey, that's just me.

  - There are several ways to increase spending, is what we're saying. - Beryllium Dec 8, 09:45 1
    - er, "spending power" is a typo. Should be "buying power". :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 8, 09:45
