This link shows how many jobs will be created in each state:

It's pretty interesting on the number of jobs created in those red states that old Rush seems to think are not in need of any of the money!

1. so why do texas and florida get so many when they have kill their

budgets and their jobs - while the blue states are getting so little except the republican gov of calif.

2. click on "jobs per capita"

3. the "per capita" has the jobs all between 1% and 1.5% (except for D.C.)

it seems to be fairly well spread out when you take the population of each state into account.

4. Yep, that's what I think also.

It's pretty well spread out and those republicans in congress are getting their share for their states. I remember one congress person saying it would all go to the "blue" states, so they couldn't see voting for the bill when only those in the blue states would benefit! They must not have done their home work!:eyes:

5. WTF is with Wyoming??? They have the lowest unemployment but get the most out of this bill

if you look at the per capita


only 3.4% Unemployment but the expect to get 1.5% job growth from the bill???

All I can say is... well Fuck Me!!


I live in Michigan, we have the highest unemployment and get one of the lowest percentages of jobs per capita out of this (1.09)

Oh well.... no complaints, I guess.
