The other $15,000 comes from Uncle Sam.

It does not come from Uncle Sam.

And why are we talking about tax cuts as a 'cost'? Whe should not be comaring the 'cost' of tax cut to 'benefit' of jobs. We should be ADDING the BENEFIT of the tax cut to the EXTRA BENEFIT of new jobs. so over 10 years $500,000 tax cut +$400,000 job created = $900,000 benefit per person.

Are we trying to stake out a position left of the Democratic Underground?

Actually I don't think there is a $500,000 per person tax cut so my numbers above need adjusting but the point is the tax cut and jobs created need to be added as two benefits, not contrasted as if one were a cost.
