More shovel ready jobs that “weren’t really shovel-ready”. More money for signs touting a federal program that doesn’t work. Yipee.

What plan?

There’s still no plan on the table.

Other than vacation.

Same old bullsh*t, new song.

Make-work “jobs” for Unions, at 25% over the Union-set “prevailing” wage.

Massive new spending...

The good news is that Obama and the dims are desperate to shore up their base. That's the only possible explanation for a silly move like this as the election season is ramping up.

He knows the stupid middle is on to him and would otherwise be talking about small business tax breaks etc. in this political climate.

Nope, Obama is in VERY serious trouble and everyone on the left knows it. He no longer inspires passion or commitment in his own fold.

This is a slow motion train wreck of Carteresue proportions.

Tax Break for Hiring.

Things are bad indeed when you have to bribe businesses to hire.

Just what we need: more labor cartel handouts. Who do you think will perform the school upgrades? We spent $850 billion on the first stimulus. Why weren’t the school upgrades included?

A tax break for hiring? Hired to do what? Does this fool think that businesses hire people just to have employees?

I am a civil engineer, and I have done renovation work like this. This being August...the beginning of the school year...an architect would be hard pressed to program and design a building, and get the plans approved by June...if he started TODAY. Why is June important? Its best to do demo when school is out. So, none of this would happen in 2012. At best, it will occur in June 2013...what a coinquidink....right in front of the election. He is hoping to reap the short term job gain, before the long term debt hangover from it sinks in.

let school renovations be handled by the districts that pay the bills for the schools Zero. Stay the f%#k away from our schools.

Don’t offer me a tax credit to hire someone. It’s a one time deal like the 3000 dollar one you dangled a year or so ago. I won’t hire ANYONE until I have a reason to. Products are not selling, there for, no additional help is needed at any price (if you want to pay someone full boat to work for me I’ll still turn you down)

I heard Rep Jan Jakowski -D spew this crap about her bill on Don & Roma show (WLS) It was $230 billion of make-work government jobs, build schools, new teacher, community organizers, yada, yada, yada . . .

This just shows how little Obama understands business. Short term tax breaks for new hiring don’t mean that the business can operate profitably. Businesses facing new taxes, the costs of Obamacare and an avalanche of new costly regulations may not be able to make the business expansion needed to make these new jobs possible.

Wondering why public schools need building renovations when a higher priority would be stop the cheating and get the dang kids to study and get good grades instead. (i.e Atlanta) No more Federal funds spending to throw down into unproductive Rat holes.
