Sure, here are a few

The latest report filed by Indiana with the federal government has more than $1.2 billion in stimulus money being spent by all state agencies with more than 3,500 jobs created, close to $350,000 spent per job.

So, if the $16 billion in federal stimulus contracts generated 30,383 direct jobs, how many indirect jobs were created or saved? We asked the White House, which told us they believe that for each direct job created or saved, there is one indirect job. Assuming that's right, that $16 billion created or saved some 60,000 jobs — which still clocks in at $267,000 per person

Never mind the absurdity of measuring “jobs created or saved.” Even if we take the administration at their word, they have spent $232,241 per job “created or saved.”

A Channel 4 analysis of how the Tennessee Department of Transportation is spending stimulus dollars found that federal taxpayers spent an average of $161,500 per job created and that some paving jobs, which were temporary, cost taxpayers more than $1 million each.

I could post dozens and dozens more of how our tax dollars have been used.

I wish some of my out of work friends could find those 160,000.00 or 350,000.00 a year jobs
