Government to create jobs it cannot create!

"Obama announced the awarding of $2.3 billion in tax credits to companies that manufacture wind turbines, solar panels, cutting edge batteries and other green technologies. The money will come from last year's $787 billion stimulus program.

He also renewed a call by Vice President Al Gore for Congress to approve an additional $5 billion to help create more such jobs.

Obama said the tax credits would create some 17,000 green jobs".

Over two billion dollars to create seventeen thousands jobs! This means jobs created by the government plan, (the government planers are always planning your life), will each cost the government, in tax revenue, $135,000! What a plan! No wonder governments have to operate on force and coercion. They would not survive if people had a choice to voluntary follow the government plan or not to follow the government plan.

Other news.- Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, gave a speech on "Development in the 21st Century."

Hillary Clinton said, "Well, you know the proverb, Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, but teach a man to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime. Well, if you teach a woman to fish, she'll feed the whole village. (Applause.)"

Notice the denigrations of the male and the praise of the female. Hillary Clinton says if you teach a male and a female how to fish, the male will feed only himself, but if you teach a female how to fish she will feed a whole village. That's a lot of fishing for one woman, and it does not comport with how my father fished to feed his family. Nor does it add up to why so many men died in coal mining and other industrial accidents trying to feed their families.

Secretary of State Clinton is still advocating her socialist views of the African proverb "It takes a village to raise a child". She is a Platonist who thinks only the State, ran by women, knows how to raise us, and then when we become adults, the State continues to manage our lives. Her long oration is not about economic development in the 21st century. It is about wealth distribution. The humanitarians are not satisfied with managing the affairs of others in their own country; they want to manage the affairs of other countries. Humanitarians are never satisfied.
