tax cuts that were taxable as income. wtf was that all about. and it was tax cuts to lower class. lower class doesn't create jobs so your analogy is not validYou'll take 5 million (that's being generous) jobs created over 8 years? You think that's a good record? The stimulus alone created or saved 3 million jobs. That's according to the CBO - you know, that congressional office that the right likes to dismiss when they come to conclusions that the right doesn't like, and then praise when they come to conclusions that the right does like.
but how many jobs were lost in these stimulus years? there was no net gain. at best the stimulus created temporary civil service jobs with no sustainable income to suport them when the stimulus runs out. it was a bandaid on an amputation. a joke
It was bandaid. It was too small for one. And then there's the fact that 2/3rds of the stimulus was tax cuts. So much for the "tax cuts create jobs" argument.![]()
