Jobs, not work!

I listened to the blathering idiots on the radio this a.m. and once again I just have to laugh at what they find important. These two characters were talking about the city of Orem listing one hundred new jobs created by changing a traffic light. The city officials were filling out an application in order to receive a portion of the "stimulus" money that our esteemed President has promised will 'save our economy'. The most interesting thing about this is in four years Barack will be able to say "My plan created millions of new jobs" and people will believe him. One hundred people to change a traffic light, one hundred people to paint lines on the road, one hundred people to move rocks from one side of the street to the other, all those hundreds add up. What the city officials don't tell you is that these are not jobs, they are work. Work ends, jobs don't! We are quickly traveling a road that will become a slippery path to socialism.
