I just read that this year we lost 1.2 million jobs in 2008 so far. So, he’ll recover half those jobs once this downturn cycle is over.
Don’t forget, those “millions” of jobs building “energy efficient” cars, will more than likely be robots that the industry has been forced to develop because of the extremely high cost of labor, thanks to the Unions.
Japan solved it’s labor shortage this way, and American industry will do the same to remain competitive. As far as the pipe dream of solving the economic crisis by rebuilding schools, bridges roads, etc, those jobs now require years of professional trade experience. General laborers (Pick & shovel gangs) have been replaced by heavy equipment.
Add the incredible cost of his environmental overkill, “Crap & Trade” scam and the building materials industry will have to charge the tax payers double for the same materials & services.
BUT, it all sounds so GOOD! Just like his pie-in-the-sky speeches that his Cult following chanted repeatedly. WE WANT PIE....WE WANT PIE!....... They are going to get just that!
