Raul Grijavla recently claimed that the Obama stimulus had created over one million jobs. The assertion would be funny if the facts weren't so absolutely tragic. The truth of the matter is that this looked like a mild recession until federal spending on the financial bailouts began in the fall of 2008. Worse yet, job loss during the implementation of the stimulus "package" looks like one of those wedgy-inducing water slides that requires extra chlorine. If efforts by the libs "softened" this recession, then I would like to know how much worse it could have been without having wasted a trillion dollars in spending.
Who am I? Like yourself, I am a concerned citizen who is sick of elected officials who's only concern is their own political future. In 1994 I moved to southern Arizona to work and live because of the large number of jobs being created in this fabulous state. Like most Arizonans I value the freedom of economic opportunity that this state is known for and that has helped us to thrive. Unfortunately, many politicians, having passed themselves off as sharing these values, now promote a socialistic agenda, wanting to spend the wealth that Arizonan's create on large government and programs that stifle creativity and initiative. I wish to be a voice in opposition to these charlatans. Enjoy my blog.
That is one nasty looking graph. Yikes!
