The Obama Jobs Plan Is a Blue-State Bailout in Disguise

Peterson and Nadler: The Obama Jobs Plan Is a Blue-State Bailout in Disguise - WSJ.com
Last Thursday, the president urged Congress to pony up roughly $200 billion in taxpayer money to "provide more jobs for teachers [and] more jobs for construction workers" and more money to carry out other state and local activities.
He urges Congress to spend this money even after handing out hundreds of billions of dollars for similar purposes as part of the 2009 stimulus package, as well as a score and more billion dollars again in 2010.

"More $$ for state workers and teachers simlpy puts off the time when their spendthrift greed bankrupts the system.
