Wow that's a huge gap for an estimate in job creation. Sure they created jobs. Jobs that probably won't last and cost far more than they should have. But that's cool its China's money anyway.

Ponder this for a minute and then tell me whether or not the Obama Stimulus REALLY created any jobs...

Why did the Obama Administration have to come up with a whole new economic statistic "jobs saved" if in fact the stimulus created jobs?

Bottom line, Lil...you don't create a bull shit statistic unless you're reluctant to use the ones already in place.

You bet and when the money runs out on those "saved" jobs what happens then??

since your source says the total for construction was only 38,101,898,173, what DID the states do with the other 749,000,000,000?????

certainly wasn't create jobs.
