re: #401 darthstar

The alternative is to have them say, “I voted against this project which will bring X jobs to our community, but apparently I was wrong in doing so.” and not let them take credit for it.

No, the alternative is to say that X jobs are not worth Y cost, but since i lost that vote, i’m sure as hell going to try my best to bring X jobs here rather than let them go to another state.

Of course the stimulus is creating jobs. Anyone want to do the math on how much we’re paying per job created?

Hating the answer to that question does not obligate one to cede jobs, no matter how expensive they were, to one’s neighbors.
