1,035,000: Construction Jobs Lost Under Obama

 When President Barack Obama signed his economic stimulus legislation on Feb. 17, 2009, he said that one impact of the act would be to create jobs for 400,000 people building and rebuilding the nation's infrastructure.
But despite a price tag that the Congressional Budget Office   now says was $833 billion, the economic stimulus of February 2009 did not create 400,000 new construction jobs.

  2. Obama had help killing construction jobs - O'Malley! O'Malley ushered in sprinkler laws, septic laws, setback laws all adding to the cost of new homes. Killing construction jobs in his wake and at the very time construction was teetering on the brink. With friends like Obama and O'Malley, blue collar workers don't need enemies!

  4. Bottom line no matter what the press hypes from the Regime:
    There are less people working NOW than when Obama took office.

    REAL unemployment is over 11%.

  5. But yet the Obama lovers are out there. Saw a sign today on a vehicle "FIRE OBAMA".......Would love to have more of those to pass out. One Obama lover walked by the vehicle with a major chip on her shoulder making some off the wall remark about voting for Obama! She is totally clueless even when they read all the horrible things Obama has done to our great country. It's like they are under some strange power - Like an Obama spell?
