i think that's where the stimulus that obama pushed thru failed. it should have been a works/infrstructure package, not a temporary fund to cities to hire more police/fire dept workers and teachers. cause when the money ran out, so did the jobs, because the states couldn't afford to keep them on the payroll.
see, there's not as much of a domino affect when you hire those employees. but when you work on highways, bridges, other infrastructure-purchases are made. equipment, supplies, etc. money flows for those projects in many directions. plus there's the bonus of fixing deteriorating structures.
oh well. maybe next time.
