Videos: the Tale of two Labor Secretaries

This is quite the contrast. First up, Barack Obama's Labor Secretary, Hilda Solis. She literally says that unemployment checks actually helps the economy because the recipients of those checks spend them.



Here is Elaine Chao, Labor Secretary from 2001 - 2009. This interview is about one year old but when compared to the insanity enunciated by Solis above, it's quite a salient contrast between logic and the absurd notion that unemployment checks stimulate the economy.

Oh, both Solis and Chao are minorites.
