Not according to the government's own website for tracking the numbers. 30 per state. BTW, are you really using Fox News as a source? I thought you couldn't trust them, couldn't stand them, and couldn't watch them? Whatever are you doing on their website?
I promised I'd give their website a try. So, here I am posting stuff from Fox News. They don't say much about it, which is fine because I only want the facts. Course I never trusted anything the White House said when Bush was in office. Are we sure we can trust their reports now? They always put spin on everything. Yes, I actually just said that.
kelly, i am impressed with you more and more. you are a man of your word, and you are starting to become a skeptic about what both sides say. and you are right, you cant trust everything the white house puts out, regardless of who is in office.
Stimulus creates 640,000 jobs - White House says - Oct. 30, 2009 So, doing the math here (assuming the 640k jobs is correct though anyone with a sane mind knows it's grossly exaggerated...), the total cost per job is $230,769 per job. Since most of these jobs only pay about 40-50k a year, wouldn't it have been better to have just given 50k to 650,000 people and let them spend it in the local businesses spurting job growth? hell, we just gave them 230k each.... This is just stupid. No other way of putting it. There's NO spin these ******** can put on this that'll make it look any different to anyone with more than 3 brain cells communicating with each other.
But the stimulus was aimed at doing more than just create jobs. That money is going for things, important things, like reasearching bat dung. Posted via Mobile Device
Sorry Kelly, but the Obama whitehouse has told so many lies that if and when they DO tell the truth, I still would'nt believe em. ESPECIALLY when that idoit Biden tells it. And you thought GWB was dumb ?
Too bad it didn't save my job and hasn't created a new one for me. I am still the unemployed The white house is calling figuring up how much each "saved" job cost "calculator abuse." But they are applauding themselves for, "unparalleled transparency in reporting job numbers to the public." http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalp...-white-house-calls-that-calculator-abuse.html
Major Garrett from "FOX NEWS" asked Robert Gibbs how many jobs were created and how many were saved (not combining them in one number) and he couldn't answer the question. And that's b/c they dont even know the actual numbers themselves. Most of this money went to pay off special interest groups for helping him get elected. It was not to save American jobs, it was not to start the recovery of the economy. It was going to recover on its own no matter if anything was done or not so knowing that the could actually do nothing to help it and they could still take credit for it and pay off those who they owed And that is the truth.
obama says the stimulus created or saved 650,000 jobs, joe biden says 1,000,000 jobs, the statistics say just under 31,000 jobs. i tend to believe the statistics in this case.
Uh, how about this little tidbit: Over 3 MILLION jobs have been lost since the "Stealfromus" bill was passed.
true enough, and the unemployment rate is well above the 8% promised if the stealfromus package passed. good job there
