The Most Transparent Administration

I happen to go to recovery.gov today and saw a chart of the jobs planned to be created or "saved" - they plan to create or "save" 106,000 jobs in Georgia. Not 105,000 and not 107,000 - precisely 106,000. How could their planning possibly be so precise? After staring at the data for a few minutes, I realized the terrible truth.

California - 396,000 Texas - 269,000 New York - 215,000 Florida - 206,000 Illinois - 148,000 Pennsylvania - 143,000 Ohio - 133,000 Michigan - 109,000 Georgia - 106,000 North Carolina - 105,000

Do you see the pattern?

Pull 3,500,000 jobs created or "saved" out of your ass. Then apportion this number to the 50 states (plus DC) according to their proportional share of the total US population and round to the nearest 1000.

I plotted the Obama jobs numbers against the population of each state (as of 7/1/2008) with the following result:

Obama is saving union jobs first.

Huh...I rather figured he’d build a model based on the popular vote cast in his favor in the Presidential election of last November. But, then, that would not have supported his commitment to bipartisanship, now would it?

It’s time to take back the country.

Good explanation. I was also wondering how they came up with these numbers.

Are these all union jobs that are being "saved"?

When will we see this happening?

Is there a site that we can go to and monitor the results?
