Don’t wish to argue pro or con about Ron Paul. Just thinking about this: $5,000,000,000 ( 5 billion) divided by 5000 jobs = $1,000,000 per job. Suppose, instead, we give,say, $500,000 to each person to help them start a small business of their own. Thoughts?

I actually thought the exact same thing. We could cut the price of this "jobs program" in half by just GIVING every proposed beneficiary $500,000 bucks each. Madness!!

I live in a place where almost everybody gets government money, they'll just piss away the money into Lexus' and strip clubs. How about we use that money to give to people who are interested in making something of themselves.
