Here's something you won't see on Fox News I'm sure. The CBO reported today that the stimulus package has put up to 2.8 million people to work in the first quarter of the 2010 calender year.
That's right. Theye stimate that between 1.2 and 2.8 Americans have been employed due to the stimuls package. The same package that the Republicans voted against and continue to speak against. And those number are only from January to March. Only 3 out of the 12 months in 2010. The link from the report can be found here.
The report also states some wonderful news as well. Here is a list:
- Raised the real GDP by between 1.7%-4.2%.
- Lowered the unemployment rate by between .7%-1.5%.
- Number of employed Americans increased between 1.2-2.8 Million.
This is great news for Americans, our country, and the policies of our President. With this news and the last two months of increased employment numbers, the policies of the administration appear to be working. There is still a lot of work to be done, however.
Who wants to bet whether or not Fox News covers this?
