the new job pool will be closer to 3500-4000

Even so the cost per job is then $300,000. Invest $300,000 at 7% long-term and you can provide 24,000 per year to each potential worker for their life-time.

Another way to look at it. If the money were invested at 7% and paid out annualy to 3,600 workers over the next 10 years, each worker would get about $41,000 per year.

There is no way to spin this as making financial sense.

You are losing me here.This is the same as keeping taxes low on businesses so that they can afford to expand,create jobs,pay higher wage etc..

That $300.000/job you are talking about is being taken from us now,isn`t it better to have it go towards productivity rather than a handout as you seem to suggest.

If I am misunderstanding your basic point,please forgive.

They will probably end up being jobs Americans don't want to do, anyway. More $ saved./sarc
