Just tossing "ridicule politics" right back at ya.

I remember a ways back when the Hot Lunch Program started started. The announcer stated that there was 6 Billion dollars for the program to feed 1 million children. I think that we should have just given each child in the program a million dollars and saved the rest of the money for something useful, like more pay for teachers.

Assuming it's passed by Congress, that is.

Even if we believe every word he says (ha),

$450 billion divided by 1.9 million is $236000/job.

Does no one at USA today (or anywhere else for that matter) have a calculator?

They say that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome. If that is the case then they should throw a net over Obama.

Umm.. Does it say how long that's for?

If it's $236,000 for a job that lasts 15 years (like being a construction worker on the Bog Dig, although those jobs paid a LOT more than that), that's not good pay. If it's for a job that lasts 3 year, well, that's pretty good pay.
