$410,476 = 2.1 million workers employed by spending $862 billion. High paying jobs? Not likely.

1 million to 2.1 million jobs. It beats saying “we’re off by as much as 110%”, I guess. That is as high as $862,000/job if a person believes these numbers, which I don’t. 6% of GDP for a 1.5% return on jobs. We’d have been better off giving every US taxpayer $50k, untaxed, half of which must be spent in a year. At least that would stimulated private sector growth.
