Not only is the founder of Home Depot an Israeli apologist.
He's an anti labor right wing partisan.
And yet he's still been able to create tens of thousands of jobs.
You probably have a point, it is not about jobs created, it is about partisanship. Evil but undeniably successful job creators are anti-union, wonder why?
I'd not heard the term Israeli apologist before. Would that be the opposite of Hezbollah apologist? So Hezbollah doesn't create jobs either. Good to know.
A job created for a duration of one year at taxpayer expense and then that job disappears once the "stimulus" is gone is not a "job created". One may as well give two men a shovel and tell one to dig a hole while the other puts the removed dirt right back in it.
ALL jobs are temporary. YOUR job is temporary. Maybe we should give you a shovel?
I have to laugh if anyone thinks there has been any jobs created, temporary labor is not ceating a job and does not help the economy, Obama has made a bunch of contractors happy and thats about it.
I really shouldn't say Obama because it's or government as a whole who has sold the American people down the road to ruin.
Employee stock incentives have already created an estimated 1,000-plus millionaires at the Atlanta-based Home Depot. And the orange-aproned elite ranges well beyond Arthur BlankArthur M. Blank is an American businessman and a co-founder of Home Depot...
Home Depot, the industry leader, has stock option incentives for management and administrative employees as well as a discount stock-buying program open to nearly all its workers.
And yet he's still been able to create tens of thousands of jobs.
Not on a net basis. Right-wingers have such difficulty in seeing the bigger picture. Home Depot has behaved like WalMart. Move in, undersell competitors out of business, then cut wages and the workforce while raising prices and profits.

If you don't like it don't shop there. I shop at the local hardware stores over the box stores most of the time. Consumers made buying choices based on their pocketbooks and that is why these big box stores survive. If they chose to support their local Mom & Pop shops, despite having to pay more, these box stores would not exist.
I'll wait for you to provide the link to the "net" numbers on Home Depot USA vs. those companies they pushed out of business, and employment numbers, specifically.
