You're too stupid to discuss this topic. Or too dishonest. Or a typical lying dimocrap piece of shit scumbag.
If you don't remember the Bastard Son of Frank Marshall Davis using that term, see a doctor.
I recommend Canada.
Yes, the term "jobs created or saved" was used by the Obama administration to describe the impact of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), often referred to as the stimulus package.
The administration, including President Obama himself and his economic advisors, used this phrasing when discussing the impact of the ARRA on employment,
according to PolitiFact and
the BBC.
The term accounted for two types of jobs impacted by the stimulus:
- Jobs Created: New positions that came into existence and were filled due to ARRA funding.
- Jobs Saved (or Retained): Existing positions that would have been lost if not for the ARRA funding.
The use of this term sparked some debate, particularly regarding the ability to accurately measure and attribute job impacts solely to the stimulus. Critics argued that isolating the impact of the stimulus from other economic factors was challenging,
according to Politico. However, the Obama administration,
as stated in the National Archives (.gov), and supporters of the stimulus,
according to the Center for American Progress, defended the methodology used to calculate job figures associated with the act.
