Katelew;

I'm just not convinced that our Democratic led Congress will find the right balance, i.e. will pour excessive taxpayer money into the creation of those jobs.

Not sure I understand what you say here? Are you suggesting Congress will pour too much money into job creation?

I think different than most people on jobs; I think we should look at lots of job creation through projects that benefit the people. Unemployment, as Mary says, is very high and going higher; therefore lets use this resource (labor) to build stuff. Bridges, alternate energy, biotechnolgy, schools, broadband, efficient distribution of energy, etc. Better to do that than pay for food stamps, unemployment benefits, welfare. ......BUT, do not encourage more spending by the consumer. Give them time to readjust and hopefully higher savings.
