Obama’s fuzzy math on display.....
"Construction of our Lunar Colony is proceeding rapidly. Hundreds of thousands of workers are diligently building our future, far above us."
People aren’t falling for this horse&&it anymore! This is an attempt to take attention away from Cap & Screw and Obamacare! 4 days from now in VA and NY23 is just the beginning...possibly NJ!
Even if that fictional number were true, that’s still over $1 million in stimulus spending for every job.
I noticed they did not tell us that 90% of the jobs were GOVERNMENT jobs!
I call bull*&%$!
The list is UP on the states:

'Government Job Creation' - the Ultimate Oxymoron. 'Jobs Created or Saved' Number is White House Fantasy
When the government distributes lucre or loot, people spend it. If your interest is national income accounting, spending other peoples money is great. Spending is a back-door way for government statisticians to measure what matters, which is the real output of goods and services.
But the government has no money of its own to spend; only what it borrows or confiscates from us via taxation. Oops.
Government job creation is an oxymoron, said Bill Dunkelberg, chief economist at the National Federation of Independent Business. It is only by depriving the private sector of funds that government can hire or subsidize hiring.
Thats why jobs created or saved is such pure fiction. It ignores whats unseen, as our old friend Frederic Bastiat explained so eloquently 160 years ago in an essay.
I saved 500,000 myself.
WV has recieved $4,370,000 so far.........31 jobs “created.” Those must be some good payin’ jobs!
