The government can create or maintain an environment where jobs can be had but they cannot directly create them themselves witch im not saying you are saying just to be clear.

It only seems though through the last 10 years the more the government has tried to stimulate us under bush and now obama the more jobs are going away. This jobs bill is no different. It was a PR piece thrown up by the president that he knew would be shot down. Not even some democrats can get on board with it.

Smoke and mirrors in my book. Its like throwing a duck in front of some hunters and gasping when it gets shot. Only this time even the environmentalist are saying "ya that duck had it coming."

I don't think these is black and white as anyone is making it out to be. Theres a lot of factors to consider, such as location and qualifications.
