According to wikipedia, Rand Paul collectively spent $12 Million to get his job.
The campaign attracted $8.5 million in contributions from outside groups, of which $6 million was spent to help Paul and $2.5 million to help Conway. This money influx was in addition to the money spent by the candidates themselves: $6 million by Paul and $4.7 million by Conway.No matter how you spin it, the fact remains: Rand Paul knows it costs money to get a job because he spent $12 Million to get his job.
I know ... I know, Rand Paul said extending UI to the unemployed does a "disservice" to the unemployed ... and naturally in typical Rand Paul disingenuous form, Rand did not explain "why" or "how" it would be a disservice.
And I also know that Rand Paul intentionally, or just out of pure ignorance, misstated Ghayad's research on unemployment.
So, the question now becomes: Why won't Rand Paul acknowledge that the unemployed need money - just as he did - to find their job and therefore extend unemployment insurance?
