You are Harvard educated and the president of the U.S. so it could be assumed you are a fairly bright individual.
You presumably know the POTUS cannot create sustainable jobs in a failing economy UNLESS you use taxpayer money to commence government projects such as infrastructure re-building; highways, bridges, water diversion projects, dams etc., which would all only impact one segment of the labout pool, that being construction.
As was mentioned however, you need to spend taxpayer money to create those types of jobs and there's none left over for that anyway.
What jobs could this intelligent person be supposing?
This intelligent person knows that job creation in any meaningful numbers would, and indeed, CAN ONLY come from an "unfettered" manufacturing sector. The removal of current restrictions that make it untimely for small manufactuer's start-up a new business or major existing ones to make major capital expenditures to expand an already existing one.
Now; this intelligent person presumably knows all of this stuff but embarks on a very expensive bus tour to promote his job creation PLAN.
The purpose of this tour has been confirmed without any doubt as a roll-out of his PLAN by the sheer brilliancy of his hitherto unreleased "very detailed job creation plan" to employ millions of currently unemployed U.S. citizens. This aforementioned plan has been carefully crafted to cover the broad spectrum from agriculture to heavy manufacturing to home building and has been adequately explained in detail so that the American public are satisfied that it will work and it stands the test of questioning by authoritative observers.
Whaaats that? There has been no detailed plan revealed? There has been nothing other than "I wake up thinking about your jobs and go to bed thinking about your jobs". Whoa nelly! How can this be? No PLAN? Just more rhetoric?
We certainly don't believe you, as a very intelligent person, would stoop to using this very expensive bus tour to merely be campaigning, as we all know that would be illegal on the taxpayer dime. Can't be!

Or can it?
You only have to look at the black community to see how "successful" Obama's "laser focus on jobs" has been. Their unemployment has been increasing the most out of all sectors of society, not decreasing. Obama is full of **** and so many liberals are so damn partisan, they can't see that and deny anything to the contrary. Government can't "create" jobs unless they are government funded jobs or projects. Look at the Census workers. Obama was touting a significant drop in unemployment when all those Census people were hired, only to be laid off when it was over and bring the unemployment rate back up to where it was prior. Government does not create a prosperous economy, I agree. That's why the Great Depression lasted longer than it should have
Very grim indeed. Obama beginning of the month, Our economy is growing. Oh really Mr. President Highest unemployment figures This Months out, over 400,000 again. Some have given up finding a job. They said this morning so many companies are not hiring, but laying off. Not good. No jobs people lose their homes, and that is adding to the list and list and list of our foreclosures, short sales and repos that have hit the market, at a all time high. Really Mr. President this is a growing economy to you? Job creation, really, where! i have learned that with Obama his talks are cheap.
Rebuilding and repairing existing infrastructure does NOT grow the economy. What grows the economy is the business that is conducted on those roads. Unless you are building roads or bridges to places that never had them, then all you doing is maintaining the economy.
This is the equivalent of a business spending money to paint their building. How does that generate more revenue???

My point was those would only impact one segmant of the unemplyed labour pool EVEN IF the funds were available to do this stuff as was done in the past with FDR.
Net creation of jobs is not the realistic answer now but putting those workers back in the economy is. Putting them back to work on anything at this point would be a good thing for all.
Those unemplyed are only going to transfer to the welfare rolls soon enough where they are going to be an ever greater tax burden.
