O Touts Stimulus, Jobs, Bike Paths
The president has made a practice of quick trips out of Washington to explain that the economy is growing again and that companies are hiring workers instead of shedding them in mass numbers, as they were when he took office. Each stop is meant to show he is working to help struggling people.Mostly His voters, the unemployable and illegals. Friday's visit will be to the Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, where a $25 million project will add turn lanes, bike lanes, and widen sidewalks. It is expected to create 300 jobs. $83,833.33 per job, including material, equipment, and overhead, unless profit is permitted. So the salary can't be more than $35-40k per job, on average. The oil spill disaster in the Gulf of Mexico is consuming Obama's time. He calls it his singular focus, even as he has described economic recovery his top task, too. Posted by: Bobby 2010-06-18 |
