How Much of the 'Good' Economic Data is Linked to Hurricane Rebuilding? |

That's what I would like to know... Massive infusion of Gov. and private sector money.
Could it be that the good news is as illusionary as everthing else Bush does?

2. Only 250,000 new jobs...rebuilding the south ravaged by hurricanes |
|
about 200,000 jobs...50,000 or so for the rest of the Nation...Not much of a gain is it...?

3. And how much is owing to all the war expenses? |
|
It's not just armaments - - it's all the consumer stuff they use: televisions, air conditioners, cots, boots, plywood - - all that stuff.
