First hard numbers indicate the Team Hopenchange Stimulus Plan has saved or created... 30,083 jobs.
That's right. 30,083 jobs.
Not so fast, responds Team Hopenchange - that only accounts for spending $16 billion of the $787 billion, and it exceeds their expectations.
M'kay. Let's apply some elementary school math to that: Divide $16 billion by 30,083, and you discover that each job created or saved cost you and me, the taxpayers... $531,861.85.
That's right. $531,861.85 for each job created or saved.
No wonder Obama didn't get the Nobel for economics.
On NPR this afternoon we heard about 8000 in TN and about 60,000 in CA. Propagandist nonsense? Probably - but how to refute?
