Reply #13: This is one of the oddest quotes I've ever seen

First, the private sector is not doing just fine. More than 10% of the population cannot find a job. Who in their right mind could argue that the private sector is doing just fine.

Secondly, you have to have a strong private sector to have a strong public sector. The tax revenue has to come from somewhere. Sure, good ol' Ben can "inject" more money into the economy, but we have seen how well that works out.

Seriously, was Reid drunk when he said this? It makes absolutely zero sense.
