Number of Stimulus Jobs Created Called Into Question

"Public confidence in the existing stimulus plan also remains shaky. Only 7% of respondents in a CBS poll released Tuesday thought that the stimulus package had created jobs. Some 46% thought it would create jobs in future, but that percentage was down from 52% in September."

I was hearing on the radio today that there was stimulus money going to congressional districts that did not even exist.

I was listening to the radio yesterday morning, they said they did a study in our state, the only jobs they could find that was created was government jobs, nothing in the private sector.  I can only imagine it would be the same everywhere.  I haven't heard of any stim money going to a private business here.

None here, in the private sector.

A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

Yup, and we all know what more government jobs leads to... more taxes.

Lies, lies, and more lies. With only a few media outlets picking up on this, it's no wonder that the public at large is so dumb. Maybe a few are starting to wake up. When this house of cards starts to fall apart in the next year, sure are going to be a bunch of surprised idiots out there.  gypsyman

The unemployment rate is increasing alarmingly. Any claims about "saving" jobs is pure nonsense. How can they measure that? They can't!
