650,000 Jobs Created or Saved, According to the White House. But Please… Stand Up If…

Zero Hedge says you didn’t think the spending of $150 billion of the $787 billion recovery package was done for nothing did you?

They’re on-track, too, on their way to creating “3.5 million jobs by the time this program winds down…” says the Administrations’ economist Jared Bernstein today.

Though, the numbers are complex, and the process for tallying everything is, well, complicated too, Tim Dowd, chief of Input a research company that tracks government spending says “There will be a lot of discrepancies in the data…  Those discrepancies will grow significantly, not because of malicious intent but because of the complexity…”

Really?  Who would have ever thought of “malicious intent?!”

And I’m sure, the discrepancies will grow significantly…  With the claims, that is.

But someone, as Tami Luhby too of CNNMoney also wants to know- please let us know if your job has been created or saved due to stimulus spending…

Com’on down…..
