Could someone explain this?

It’s been 100 days since the ‘stimulus’ package was signed. Since then, 1.5 million people have joined the ranks of the unemployed. However Obama claims the ‘stimulus’ has saved or created 100K jobs. Really, where are they? He also states that it will create 600K this summer. Really? In the form of summer youth jobs (ie. Temporary) and road construction jobs (These are good paying, but you can only build so many roads).

With unemployment at 9.4 percent and rising, could someone please explain how anyone could say the ‘Stimulus’ is working.

    The jobs are located in a state called "Denial" it's one of the fifty seven Øbama visited during the campaign. See your nearest liberal for directions to get there.

    well I'd certainly give it more than 100 days!

    Of course he is creating jobs.

    the naysayers include the unemployment figures according to the number of claims that are filed.

    Then when it become lower or become stesady, they start counting and including people on the street.

    Its so trransparent.

    Are you really that gullible?

    No one really knows how many people are unemployed.

    They just guess and put out figures that suit each other.

    There are a lot of new jobs.

    Go to North Bergen New Jersey.

    They are building an underground tunnel from North Bergen to Manhattan. The job is slated to end in 2017. There are 6,000 jobs available. The jobs will be under New JEsey Transit. Those who work underground will earn $75.00 an hour. There will be countless other jobs ~~ all associated with this massive undertaking.

    The state pays some, the government pays billions also.

    In adidtion there are other jobs being created all over the United States.

    Listen and read about some good news

    before you go placing blame.
