I guess the CBO must be watching too much Fox News.

And if you look at their report, the average job lasted a few month..

But CBO expects that the legislation will have no long-term effects on employment because the U.S. economy will have a high rate of use of its labor resources in the long run. ARRA’s long-run impact on the economy will stem primarily from the resulting increase in government debt

BINGO.. thats EXACTLY what I've been saying for YEARS!!

You only need the shovels to build the mirrors and windmills. AFter that some idiot sits around staring at a computer screen while the company goes bankrupt. And folks wonder why the economy isn't recovering. Obama's economic platform centered around green jobs and has been a complete and utter failure unless of course your one of his campaign bundlers.

On the low end, the CBO estimates $540K per job. What an unbelievable failure this Administration is. I understand why liberals are resulting to race and homosexual culture wars to win this election.....because the issues that really matter are not viable accomplishments for this President. It's just mindboggling what we allowed to happen to ourselves in 2008.

Can you open the link in the OP and actually read the story, which contains a link to the CBO study, before attempting another weak attempt at deflection?
