Rick Santorum explains unemployment remark

[Atman]

4. WTF? Really? What did he say?

"The fundamental issue that's causing the unemployment, that's causing the economic distress in our country, is the fact that the government is imposing its will and mandating things on people and creating a yoke on top of businesses that makes it hard to employ,"

Really, seriously? Companies that need employees in order to make profits aren't hiring employees because there is a yoke in their omelet," or WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? Business 101, Ricky...if there is money to be made, the money-makers will make the money! They'll pay the bennies, they'll insure people...BECAUSE THERE IS A DEMAND FOR THEIR PRODUCT, and they'll make money off of it! You fucking imbecile, the demand doesn't go away just because Lurleen Bigbottam in Iowa is worried about the health insurance of some guy on the assembly line in New Jersey! Do you really believe the bullshit your speech writers are feeding you? Probably not...you're a home schooler. You pick and choose what you want to be "facts."
