Short term jobs based on taxes will not help America, it only creates a bigger burden on me, my wife, my kids, their kids (if they can afford them), their grand children, etc...
This jobs bill by Obama will give us the best roads in the world, problem is, nobody will use them. That's because, soon Americans won't have a job to go to, or finished goods, or products to ship on them.
We need tax paying, manufacturing jobs. Like the millions of jobs that have left this country because of corporate greed, foreign investors, over-taxing, government scandals, government overspending, corruption, etc.
I'm afraid though, that those jobs are gone forever.
It's funny, outsourcing NASA jobs will not anything to cut costs. The jobs just get sent overseas through contractors who under-bid the US contractors, who, at least have US workers that pay taxes.
We need real jobs, not more educational institutions.
Remember:
If you can't make it, you can't buy it.
