That would make corporations (whoops, "Job Creators") feel more secure, so they will hire and expand, to serve a demand that is no longer there, because the jobs they shifted overseas have left the American middle class with no money to spend on consumerism.
Damn. Pyramid schemes are like that.
Yes, if only the wealthiest had more money, on top of the record 1.2 trillion they are sitting upon and keeping out of the economy, they would feel confident enough to create jobs and grow, in spite of there being no demand possible.
Presuming economic growth in a consumer vacuum ... trickle-down Reaganomics at it's best.
Who are the stupid ones again?
Yes, temporary jobs, for 1-3 years, that leaves tangible results, that produce ... consumers.

When faced with legitimate questions you come up with rhetoric.
So what happens in 1-3 years to these people? Oh thats right we give them 99 more weeks of unemployment benefits? Who pays for that? Creating ridiclous temporary jobs for community "helpers" and 16 year olds as a way to grow the economy?
Yeah just like food stamps were great economic stimulus...
