Rep. Maxine Waters Calls for Jobs Program of a Trillion Dollars or More

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) made a jaw-dropping call on President Obama to spend up to a trillion dollars on creating jobs. She was asked by David Gregory on "Meet the Press" if it would be possible for President Obama to take on an ambitious role in working on job creation in Congress, given the recent partisan fights over the debt ceiling. She said:

The president must be bold. I agree that he must have a jobs program, he must create jobs. I’m talking about a jobs program of a trillion dollars or more. We’ve got to put Americans to work. That’s the only way to revitalize this economy. When people work, they earn money, they spend that money, and that’s what gets the economy up and going.” Source: Mediaite
Herein lies the problem with Democrats -- they want to spend their way out of debt. A trillion dollars on top of what we already owe? Come on! Congress will approve that when donkeys fly.
