Morgan Freeman: Tea Party is racist

"Of the White House’s 100 showcased projects, 90 offer specific employment data. Among these, $7,602,006,850 in stimulus funds “created or saved” 29,957 jobs. Thus, each stimulus position cost taxpayers an average $253,764.
So, Democrats are fighting unemployment by launching jobs at more than a quarter-million dollars apiece. And if the White House’s upbeat assumptions that I accepted are wrong, per-job costs zoom.

Compare this lavishness to the Labor Department’s $27.64 hourly Employer Costs for Employee Compensation. Paying one new staffer for 52 forty-hour weeks would cost an employer $57,491. Hence, private industry could create at least 4.4 jobs for the price of just one stimulus position. By this measure, private companies could have spent the aforementioned $7.6 billion to start 132,230 jobs."

Weird because even the gov't says you can't track it accurately.

Tracking Stimulus Spending May Not Be as Easy as Promised

Rep. Paul Broun (Ga.), the top Republican on the House science panel's investigations subcommittee, was harsher. "This is another broken promise by the Obama administration," he said. "We don't have the transparency and the accountability we were promised."

turnabout is interesting, but I will say that most of his stuff is so weak and so obviously pulled from idiotic lefty talking points, that refuting it is simple. He doesn't have the sense to make it more complicated.

About $1.1 million has been awarded to Nebraska departments, with the bulk going to those in the two largest cities -- $612,235 to Omaha and $309,900 to the Lincoln area.

Of the $309,900 coming to Lincoln, the county attorney's office got $215,393 to hire a new assistant county attorney and for legal aid. Lincoln police received the rest for new surveillance and global positioning system (GPS) equipment, Assistant Chief Jim Peschong said.

awesome, you've accounted for almost 0 of the stimulus and we've basically funded one new job for $1.1 million. Who says gov't spending is inefficient?

what happens when the stimulus money runs out? It's not as if it's being socked away into interest bearing accounts, it's being spent, recklessly in most cases.

Some federal money was used for some town to buy a trailer and OE needs to send thank you letters to Obama for his job. Really?

And as for prior to the stimulus...?

First of all, OE is in Virginia. Pretty sure he doesn't work for Nebraska.

So with $200,000 they created one job? Wow, that's really getting this economy moving. Also, what does a county attorney have to do with employing the average American? Nothing. They could've survived with one attorney I'm sure.

Is this the only connection to hiring cops you can find? one sentence in the whole d@mn article. It doesn't even say how much went to hiring or how many.

"But law enforcement agencies in recent years have often cited the importance of the grants to crime-fighting efforts, raising questions about why they wouldn't pursue the money. Efforts supported by the Byrne grant program include hiring officers, crime prevention and domestic violence programs, and multijurisdictional drug and gang task forces."

how is this new? You know what they received prior? How many had requisition requests in and stimulus money was the easiest way to fund them? How many of these would have rolled through appropriations just like they do every year? Stimulus is simply exacerbating what we already knew to be an enormous problem. Bloated government without controls. We just took away a control by sidestepping congressional approval. Allsome.
