From The Hill:
Democrats are set to unveil a new jobs initiative Wednesday that will provide grants to local governments to save or create jobs.
House Education and Labor Committee Chairman George Miller (D-Calif.) will join other lawmakers and mayors to announce a $100 billion program to support jobs initiatives in local governments and municipalities.
“Our goal is to retain or create a million jobs,” Miller said during an appearance on CNBC Wednesday morning. “There’s some very serious concern that the small, good news we’re getting right now on the unemployment figures could be wiped out by what’s going to happen in local governments, if they don’t get some assistance.”
The latest jobs bill will be the latest but arguably the largest jobs initiative Democrats will have undertaken over the past few months, during which they’ve moved several bills in order to spur job growth.
The proposal Miller will unveil will be structured on the existing infrastructure of the community development bloc grant program. Mayors or local leaders will submit grant proposals in the program for funds to save or create local jobs, or to create work-training programs for city workers. The $100 billion allotted by the legislation would fund those local jobs programs.
Read the whole thing here. It is increasingly clear that the Democrats can only grasp the economic forces necessary to create public sector jobs. It is, after all, a pretty simple equation: 1. raise money through taxing or borrowing and 2. give it to other politicians. Easy.
But, not sustainable. Private sector employment produces tax revenue (and tangible things of value), while public sector employment simply consumes tax revenue. Eventually, the Democrats simple math falls apart.

Private business creates jobs. Government creates welfare by re-distributing the wealth. Democrats better get ready for when the American Taxpayer wins and repeals the current BK Laws, and Fannie/Freddie Loan forgiveness and a bunch of liberal do-gooder programs just before slashing entitlements of able bodied welfare drones and then big time FEDERAL WORK FORCE REDUCTION of wge scale, benefits, pension eligibility and payout and the lifetime employment on the BIG FAT Government TEAT.
PRIVATE BUSINESS CREATES JOBS and GOVERNMENT CREATES WELFARE

The main flaw with the president's plan is to put a goal on how many jobs he wants to "create or save", the goal should be to save all current new jobs and create new ones, that is an actual measureable metric. I can say I "created or saved" as many jobs as there currently are in the economy because there is no way to prove otherwise. I don't think we have ever had a president that uses so much trickery with his everyday language.
A little reminder… That was done in Argentina under Juan Peron….same identical thing. Confiscation of pensions to pay the leftist debt of the country. Was not enough to curb hyper-inflation which rocketed to over 3000% annually.
According to DAN RATHER, this fandango and nitwittery would be a failed WATER MELLON sale.
HEYYYYYY !!!! You stupid bastards in Washington…. WHY in hell do the local governments need their jobs further created or (worse yet) saved ?? HUH ?? Most gumment workers are incompetent, uneducated and outright lacking in even the most base verbal skills. JUST WHO are they providing service to ?? Welfare rats ? Government pension scammers ? Ever heard of REAL AMERICA ? Enough of this minority (poor me) attitude or "life ain't fair" position because of poorly made educational and career decisions.
The NOVEMBER to REMEMBER is getting closer and closer. You scumbags are soooooo outta here ! Either by vote or any means required ! CAN'T WAIT TO SEE AND HEAR THE CRYING AND BEGGING.
