Maxine Waters Warns 170 MILLION Jobs Could Be Lost Due to Sequestration Cuts — But There’s a Huge Problem With Her Estimate

If Congress allows sequestration cuts to take effect, more than 170 million Americans could lose their jobs, according to Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.).

“If sequestration takes place, that’s going to be a great setback. We don’t need to be having something like sequestration that’s going to cause these job losses — over 170 million jobs that could be lost,” Waters said.

She went on to say cuts must be done “over a long period of time.”

There’s just one problem with her estimation — and it’s a big one. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are only 134 million people working in the United States. So by Waters’ estimation, the sequester cuts would be so apocalyptic that nearly 40 million people who don’t have jobs would become even more unemployed.

Further, the U.S. currently has a population of about 315 million people, according to Census data. If Waters was correct in her assertion, that would mean sequestration would leave more than half the country, 54 percent, unemployed. Talk about a catastrophe.

Luckily for America, the estimate is clearly wrong. TheBlaze could not find any data to suggest that the $85 billion in automatic sequestration cuts duringΒ  FY2013 (about 2.4 percent of annual federal budget) would cause 170 million people to lose their jobs. Then again, that’s also impossible because there aren’t that many people working in America. Unfortunately though, once something is said, you can’t take it back.

Keep in mind, Waters is the ranking Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee, which “oversees all components of the nation’s housing and financial services sectors including banking, insurance, real estate, public and assisted housing, and securities.” If Democrats should gain control of the House, she would become the chairwoman.

The Daily Beast’s Megan McArdle puts it this way:

“The best hope is that this is entirely symbolic, and they figure it’s safe to make her the senior member as long as she won’t actually be in charge of anything. Β But having put her in a highly visible slot, it will be very difficult to dislodge her in the event that the Democrats retake the house, and Maxine Waters is expected to actually architect new legislation concerning the financial system. Β And even typing those words strikes terror into my heart.”

Maxine Waters, a senior Democrat, issued a stinging rebuke of the permanent House Ethics Committee Tuesday with a declaration that its members need to step aside from partisanship when judging member conduct.

–

UPDATE: Eric Orner, Waters’ deputy communications director, told Charles C. W. Cooke in a statement that the 170 million jobs comment was a “slip of the tongue.” He also scolded Cooke for posting the video at all, saying “I think this was below your standards, and I hope you’ll reconsider the post.”

Here it is:

I just noticed a post by National Review On-Line contributor Charles C. W. Cooke about Β House Financial Services Committee Ranking Member Water’s obvious slip of the tongue (she accidentally said 170 million , when she meant 170 thousand) when referring to the number of Β jobs that may be lost as a result of sequestration.

I think this was below your standards, and hope you’ll reconsider the post.

Eric Orner

Deputy Communications Director
Financial Services Committee
Representative Maxine Waters, Ranking Member

Cooke’s response on National Review Online? “Never mind. When the very fabric of the republic collapses at 11:59p.m. tomorrow, this will all be rendered moot,” he jokingly wrote.

      Maxine, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.

      Can anyone explain how the cutting of the growth of gov’t spending by $85B will results in the kinds of cuts all the leftists are screaming about? How can all those thing cost “only” $85 B ? And if it is in fact true that ALLthose things cost $85B – why do we need to spend TRILLIONS?

      This is insane – the way the fed “budgeting” works is – this year I get to spend $100 . Next year I get to spend $125. Sequestration means I only get to spend my original $100 “budgeted” amount next year. How does NOT spending the additonal $25 that would happen via automatic “budget” increases but won’tt increase beacuse of sequestration equal a cut?

      It is amazing how they can come up with all the lost jobs, hungry children (always) etc. when this is not even cuts; this is simply to stop a pinch, 2% of the spending and all heck breaks loose. If they would play the game fairly, they would cut a bunch of PORK and we’d be no worse for the wear and would have an excess of money in the treasury for the really serious things like hungry children.

      Have to admit, most of the people flagging handwritten signs look pretty darn well fed to me. We have quite a few places that give meals at least once a day, some 3x a day, and give then beds to sleep in. Usually good work ethics and attitude will get almost anyone a job, unless they want to be a CEO right out of the box, and that ain’t happening anytime soon. You work up to prove yourself.

      How hard is it for liberals and Dimorats to understand…….Go take a crap in your hand and take it to the store to buy something, you cant buy a thing because everyone has crap in them, crap is everywhere, we have sanitation departments that try to dissolve crap, we pay people thousands of dollars a year to dissolve crap, crap crap crap is everywhere……Now if you print too many dollars and they are equal to crap in quantity then you cannot buy anything with crap or money, which renders our economy useless…….Too much of a good thing is never a good thing……..Its not hard to be a conservative and save for the most important things in life…..Suze Orman tells women and men to save save save all the time…..Save your money….Jeeez

      Just look at the scowls of those black women straddling Waters…..where is Aunt Ester from Sanford & Son when you need her? As to Eric Orner…the poor sap who has agreed to be Water’s deputy communications director (how many communication director employees does Maxine Waters need? She is not that important) but Orner has the worst job on earth….constantly sweeping up after his boss’s gaffs…..trying to explain away her inane stupidity and complete cluelessness….and I say to him right here right now….”Eric Orner…it must really bite hard to be you…I don’t even know how you sleep at night knowing you have to wake up the next morning and pray and petition the lord that your boss is not going to ooze any more of her “dumbness” today….Maxine Waters….owner of the famous comment “Under the watchful leadership of Franklin Raines I see no problem over at Fannie Mae”……for the love of everything good and evil….this woman is a complete and total loon. Keep voting for her East L.A…..and expect more and more graffiti every where you look…because this woman is leading you all right down the wormhole of oblivious ineptitude.

      OH CRAP!
      ” According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are only 134 million people working in the United States. So by Waters’ estimation, the sequester cuts would be so apocalyptic that nearly 40 million people who don’t have jobs would become even more unemployed.”
      What does this mean to those of us who are retired? Will that make me MORE retired? Can I also get unemployment along with my pension?

      I blame myself, and everyone else in this ONCE GREAT COUNTRY for re-electing the same people, over and over again, who are not smarter then a Lima Bean.

      We have a president that is a domestic terrorist who threatens the American Public to force them to vote or put pressure on Political foes to achieve his agenda. We have people elected to Congress that are not smarter then a Lima Bean, and 47% of the country sitting are their butts with their hands out. I thought change was suppose to be for the good of a Nation not to Destroy it, or to spit on those who have sacrificed so much for this Once Great Nation.

    Ms. Waters? Are you an educated idiot or just an idiot? You would have been better served had you said a gazillion people will be killed as a result of your Boss’s sequestration law. Yep, you a bit deef? YOUR BOSS’S Sequestration Law Ms. Waters and with fiction you put forth like this? From a supposed intelligent and informed representative, you can no longer be considered a serious representative to all outside your LIV constituency so it’s no longer Ms. Waters it’s Maxi…..pad Waters.

      Black caucus is full of them, remember the guy
      who said Guam would tip over if we expanded
      the base. They just keep re-electing these people
      when there’s the Allen Wests, Mia Loves, Thomas
      Sowels, Dr Carsons etc. out there. Keep shoting
      yourselves in the foots.

      “Maxine Waters Warns 170 MILLION Jobs Could Be Lost Due to Sequestration Cuts β€” But There’s a Huge Problem With Her Estimate”

      Well if she’s correct, by some remote stoke of luck, she’ll be dangling from a oak tree in her district, by sundown, used as a pinata by angry people beating her with an ugly stick trying to knock the crap out of her, which she is obviously full of. Actually it might knock some sense into her while releaving her of her nasty contents. Good luck Maxine! If it happens, it couldn’t have happened to someone more derserving, well if you don’t take into account most of other democraps.

    Have you ever seen a group of unhappier, stupid and obviously ignorant people in your life.

    Maxine should be advised that it is better to say nothing than to open her ignorant mouth and prove that she is stupid.

    How can true Americans be expected to put up with these fools?

      “For decades, it has been obvious that there are irreconcilable differences between Americans who want to control the lives of others and those who wish to be left alone. Which is the more peaceful solution: Americans using the brute force of government to beat liberty-minded people into submission or simply parting company.” – Dr. Walter E. Williams

      She represents the Watts district from LA, you know, the HOOD. So, she is just trying to properly represent her constituents by being as uneducated and crazy as they are, and before any of you start screaming “Racist”, I have worked with many people that were born and raised from that area, and they will back me up in that statement.

      DAMOCK…I know the area well. You don’t have to explain yourself nor defend yourself for speaking the truth. Her district is a distaster and so gerrymandered she could run as a cardboard cut out and still win. Just like Jesse Jackson Jr did in Illinois while inundated with scandal after scandal.
      Let’s call a spade, a spade as it were (bait)…..her color, her uneducated constituency and their desire for the free stuff she offers them keeps her in office year after year. She knows just what to tell the idiots that fester in her district.

      I am a Trekie, and I remember one day Glenn Beck kept doing a reference on his radio show to β€œWhen the Walls fell”, the blaze started up the next week and I decided to use this as my handle. When the walls fell is a reference to failure. Here is a link to the show and terms they used.
