<br />
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner stated the price per job is the wrong way to measure the bill's worth. He also pointed out that there is no other option currently under consideration for getting the economy moving and putting more people back to work.<br />
<br />
Geithner believes there is a &quot;very good chance&quot; the Jobs Act will pass because the proposals have seen bipartisan support in the past and the cost of inaction is far too high.<br />
<br />
You have to be kidding! We can&rsquo;t continue to spend more money we don&rsquo;t have. Government doesn&rsquo;t create jobs!<br />
