Who can forget those beyond incredible job creation projection numbers of the Stimulus Bill. 3.5 million jobs, 4 million jobs, the promise was high and never mind spending almost a trillion dollars for these jobs. Recently the Council of Economic advisers issued a report on job creation from the Stimulus, at the same time, the White House claimed to have saved 750,000 jobs by August, 2009.
So, what's the catch? There is no real world, real data on the truth of these claims and there may never be.
We still have theoretical calculations on job creation, based on Stimulus spending as a ratio of GDP, and thus indirectly jobs.
