UH HUH!

The numbers are in and we at the Boston Globe believe the White House hook, line and sinker!

"Still, though, it’s ridiculous to deny, as many have, that adding 2.5 million jobs was a poor use of government funds."

Even if we assume that number is correct (which obviously it is not inasmuch as 4 million jobs have been lost since the stimulus was passed), I don't think it is worth mortgaging our children's future, our grandkids', their grandkids', and frankly, our own future, to create a measily 2.5 million jobs that would have been replaced by the capitalist system if the politicians had not intervened and commandeered those workers for the public sector.

Even accepting the premise that the 800 billion dollar stimulus created 2.5 million jobs, that still works out to $320,000 per job.
