Wasting other people's money.

Folks this is why 'central planning' doesn't work. It never has worked and never will work. What it will do is destroy the economy of this country.

But don't worry; Utopia is just around the corner, it will just take another 4 years.

I wanna know....why is ANYONE supporting Obama? I just don't understand it. Are we a moral majority or a Moron majority? We can't talk another 4 years of this crap.

>>>Audit: Green jobs stimulus program wastes cash....

President Obama’s green jobs training program, which was part of his stimulus, has failed on most key jobs measures, according to a new internal audit that found it was training workers who already had jobs that didn’t need green energy skills, and was failing to place new enrollees in jobs once they finished the training.

The Labor Department’s inspector general also said grantees who received the green jobs-training money did a poor job of reporting their results.

Only 38 percent of those who have completed training got jobs based on it, and only 16 percent kept jobs for at least six months — the key measure of success for the program.

“Outcomes for participants were far less than originally proposed,” the auditors said.

84% if that money was wasted.

FOUR MORE YEARS, WE NEED MORE OF THIS.

Dream on.
Gallup Romney 51% Obama 46%
Rasmussen Romney 50% Obama 46%.
Romney tied in Wisconsin, Colorado, Iowa, Ahead in Florida, Virginia, North Carolina, tied in Ohio and closing the gap in Pennsylvanial

This is one election night I'm going to enjoy watching.

Hope you are stocked up on tranqualizers. Your gravy train is coming to the end of the line.

Since Romney has a 22% chance of winning you must have great expectations of making lots of money on what you have bet. You have put your money where your mouth is haven't you?

Washington Time? Please. Note "a poor job of reporting results" is not the samething as poor results

As for 38% receiving training getting jobs as a result of it.. yes and? How do private sector programs compare?

Absent a private sector comparison you do not know if the program wastes $$ or not.

You do realize the "gravy train" only stops in Red States... Most liberals will do fine. We will actually get richer. Its guys like you and NC that are going to see your incomes collapse.
