Yabbut, at what cost? $80,000 a job? That is 4 times my yearly salary… These Politicians throw figures like millions, billions, and trillions of dollars around like, oh, I don’t know, like it isn’t their money and they don’t care…
Of course, there’s the Republican plan; shut up and die already !! Or here will give even more money to the one percent on a bended knee and hope against all hope it’s enough for them to create a few jobs. But the reason no jobs are created is because no one is buying enough of anything because they are afraid for their jobs.
The government cannot create jobs. It can only move them around. If they hire somebody extra they must tax everyone extra to pay for it. That tax money would’ve been used by the people to buy things if it wasn’t taken away from them. Those expenditures would create/save just as many jobs as the extra government spending will. The difference is that one way the people decide what they want for themselves and the other way the government decides for them. see http://vexusnexus.blogspot.com/2011/09/winners-and-losers.htmlfor a more complete explanation.
I repeat. The exporting of jobs is due to the US worker pricing itself out of the market. This will soon be a 3rd world country with little hope for the future. In fact we are probably looking at a “3rd world world”. And nearly 5 billion years ’til the end.
Also, few want to work any more. Just constant gratification. All fun and games.
Well maybe after Obama is done raising campaign funds from the Wall Street crowd he can go back and propose something useful, not that he’s done much of anything useful in his adult life.

And…? look, about the jobs program…most of you would put a band-aid on a kid. Think about it.
All of you would try to grab a baby about to fall over a cliff…or into a well. Just think about it a minute.
