My vote for KIrby-Moore is that his daughter and he certainly did save nine jobs with 9 pair of boots/shoes.

Without those heavy duty boots those men or women would not have been working.

That is not a vote for Obama and his stimulus.

There is a little humor in this except for the storeowner faced with complying with this government crap.

Oh bummer! He should have paid his daughter for her help filling out the papers and added another job to the nine.
When a country becomes communistic it suddenly has full employment. Everyone receives a pay check. I am not sure if all the checks are for the same amount or not.

Moore says he’s been supplying the Corps with boots for at least two decades. This year, because he provided safety shoes for work funded by the stimulus package, he said he got a call from the Corps telling him he had to fill out a report for Recovery.gov detailing how he’d used the $889.60, and how many jobs it had helped him to create or save. He later got another call, asking him if he’d finished the report.

“The paperwork was unreal,” said Moore, who added that he tried to figure out how to file the forms online, then gave up and asked his daughter to help.


Yes, bureaucracies.....both public and private........can be stupid. There is no question of that.
