Biden's solution to create more jobs

Both Biden and his Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg have made the 19 million jobs claim. The source of the statement is a Moody's analysis, which CNN pointed out had estimated the U.S. economy would add about "16.3 million jobs over the same period if the infrastructure proposal does not get passed."

Subtracting Moody's 16.3 million figure from Biden's 19 million projection would equal 2.7 million net jobs created by the infrastructure plan. Rounding up to 3 million jobs and dividing by $2 trillion equals $666,000 per job.

Yeah, we are really getting a lot of bang for our taxpayers buck. [/sarcasm]

When Obama got his infrastructure bill he proclaimed it would create so many jobs. I was on the Big Island when some of that money filtered down to Hawaii. What it did for us on the Big Island was not what the money was intended for. It did not create jobs. in fact it only made the layoff of companies like Hawaiian Dredging occur a few months later after the money was gone. In other words, most of the money went to the big construction companies who kept some of their employees busy for a few months longer than originally planned. The layoffs occurred after the money ran out. Not one additional person was hired for the infrastructure upgrade work that was performed. I am sure that some people were hired to do some work some where in the US. But of course once the money runs out they were laid off if there was no more work available. So much for permanent jobs that were promised. IMHO the same will happen with the Biden infrastructure bill.
