No. The majority of the jobs are skilled, leave tangible hard results (repair, construction, teaching) and will possibly require some retraining of the 99 weekers (which is addressed in the plan)
Your tax question is a good one.

i read the article listed above, as well as a few others yesterday, trying to find more info. so far, unsuccessful in finding any real details. and like i said, it's all well and good to say hire more fire, police, teachers..but as has been asked, what happens in a couple of years? if it's not permanent funding, it's not a good plan imo, especially when one wonders where the future tax goes. haven't seen details on that either.
