An excerpt from www.detnews.com: <br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &ldquo;According to the report, the program &quot;saved or created&quot; 2.4 million jobs - at a cost of $666 Billion. Even if we ignore the fact that there is no way to prove a job was &quot;created or saved,&quot; the price tag adds up to a whopping $278,000 per job. Beyond that, the vast majority of jobs being counted belong to government workers. In short, the federal government confiscated billions of dollars in private wealth, used it to fund itself, and then decided to claim that it had saved the livelihoods of hard working Americans.&rdquo;<br />
