Do you realize that most of these so called "jobs" are going away in a year or two once the states no longer get the money and have to adjust to the lower tax receipts? 

Also - do you realize these so called jobs are costing the taxpayer about 485k per? 

WTF is that?

"or they are government jobs which help the private sector in no way"

TRUE - but only if none of these govt workers spend their $ in the private sector.  And since most things we buy are in the pvt sector, then this $ does get taxed when it's paid as income, and it generates pvt and state revenue (taxes) when it is spent.

So while yes, they're govt jobs... they do pipe a lot of $ into the private sector... which creates more pvt sector jobs.  If 2 mil govt jobs are created, these 2 mil people spend their checks at walmart... then Walmart is gonna hire more ppl.

Does only 8 percent of your check enter the private economy?

I think most people spend 90% (or more) of their take-home income.  Rent, food, car payment, food... all private sector $$.

ah i gotcha.  My whole point is that these goe jobs are pumping a lot of $ back into the private sector.  When mailmen, cops and teachers get their checks, they pay landlords and spend it at walmart.

When some people (not you) claim that the govt-created jobs help zero, that's just not true.  They do create jobs in the pvt sector when new $ is pumped into it.
