Look it up!
And where is that money going to come from? The government cannot pay people already and you think they can provide more jobs? What part of we are 14 Trillion in the hole is so difficult to understand. Jobs need to come from the private sector not the government. 10 jobs in the private sector gives the government tax dollars. 10 government jobs requires tax dollars.
Again I agree. Ideally, jobs should come from the private sector. But they aren't. And if they aren't, what then? They either come from the Government or they don't come from anywhere. I'd rather have Government jobs over no jobs, and I would bet many of the millions of people out of work agree with me.
No doubt, yes I want my family to eat next week............
But government jobs do not a recovery make.
This is a tough one. Like I said, I think now, a government job is better than no job at all. But, once the private sector starts really going again and expanding and hiring, then absolutely we should shrink the size of government by laying people off and letting them get jobs in the private sector.
