Stimulus results in New Hampshire? Nothing more than a state bailout
Correct me if I am wrong but wasn’t the stimulus bill supposed to create or save jobs for ordinary Americans? That is the way that I remember the stimulus bill as being sold to a skeptical American people.
That is not what is happening, at least here in New Hampshire where the stimulus has accomplished nothing other than to save state employees from possibly facing layoffs. The stimulus bill is being credited with saving or creating 796 jobs in New Hampshire. But out of those 796 jobs only 96 of the jobs saved or created were in the public sector. 700 of the jobs that the stimulus has created or saved in New Hampshire have been state employees.
This is in no way stimulating to the average New Hampshire resident and it is in no way helping the New Hampshire economy. If you work for the state you are being protected but if you work in the private sector you have virtually been left behind. The results of this stimulus bill seem to run counter to what the stated goal of the stimulus was.
At least here in New Hampshire the stimulus bill was nothing but a state bailout.

I think Joe Biden got it right when he said “we got it wrong”.

It’s not really a big surprise, nothing Obama has said so far has turned out to be true. Let’s just hope he doesn’t manage to pass anything else.

We have to hold on for one more year. Then hopefully we will be able to stop his agenda.

You are spot on! The same is true in most states. A bailout for government workers. But then these are some of the base of the Democrats and is to be expected. The butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker are left out and must look out for themselves—and they will be fine as long as “Big Brother Barack” lets them keep what they earn and not tax them to death to help the hanger-on’s who in the end will never help themselves as long as Big Brother Barack is giving them handouts.

He bailed out Wall Street but forgot about Main Street and now he has bailed out the state workers. I thought he was supposed to take care of us?
