Remember the latest jobs report. 435,000 new jobs. Wow . . . . until we found out that 411,000 of those jobs were temporary census jobs. Whistle blowers from the census office are telling anyone who will listen that they are hired, trained for two or three days, work a day or two, are laid off then rehired, trained, laid off , rehired . . . . . four, five six times. Each time it counts as a new job !!!
There are 6 or 7 highway projects in the central valley of California -- where this editor lives. These projects are all funded by a "Measure C" -- a bond we vote on every year or two. It pays for all intra-state highway projects. The jobs mentioned above have been under construction for 3 to 5 years, well before Obama. What has happened out here in California is this; the "Measure C" signs are coming down and the new "Reinvestment Act" signs are going back in their place(s) and Obama is getting credit for all those jobs.
Folks, the jobs problem is far worse than any of us think. It is all smoke and mirrors. And now, this video. We found it at Watching the Nation (see our blogroll).
