A stimulating 225,000 new jobs to be created

But they will all be Federal Government jobs.

President Obama's budget is so ambitious, with vast new spending on health care, energy independence, education and services for veterans, that experts say he probably will need to hire tens of thousands of new federal government workers to realize his goals.

The $3.6 trillion plan released last week proposes spending billions to begin initiatives and implement existing programs, and given Obama's insistence that he would scale back the use of private-sector contractors, his priorities could reverse a generational decline in the size of the government workforce.

Exactly how many new workers would be needed remains unclear -- one independent estimate was 100,000, while the conservative Heritage Foundation said it is likely to be closer to a quarter-million.

That is stimulating. I feel stimulated, don't you? lol

200,000 out of 4 million new jobs is about 5%.

The initial projection was 90%private and 10% public sector.

This 10% increase in jobs is permanent and will require a tax increase to fund them them. In the private sector, a new postion can be paid for by the increased output but with a government job, all it does is eat up tax payer dollars.

YUP, and they would average $40K/yr with all entitlements paid for with a liberal number of sick days, personal days , holidays and yearly vacation.

And full retirement with twenty years service.

Where are the government defenders on this one?

I want in on that action.
