I have nothing against green jobs, I have a problem with Barry giving money to companies that are laying off now after getting huge amounts of money

The article you just posted tells you how much Obama set aside for green jobs, $30b worth... that doesn't mean he spent $30b, and $80b total was set aside for green technology, as you can see most of that was towards research, again not even all of that has been spent.
2%, is what it has grown into, that's freaking huge....
No, the 2.7 million is not way off, it's posted in the article you posted, and it's from the research directly that the report was taken from:

This is a quote form the article "
And, according to the report, the ?clean economy? employs 2.7 million Americans. That number of employees is less than the IT industry in the United States, but more than the biosciences and slightly more than the fossil fuel industry according to the authors."
You should point your hate towards bad business owners doing shady shit with money rather than what was actually planned to happen. It sucks Obama hooked up one of his buddies either way, but it's still that company directly that screwed it all up. And you would have a right to be pissed, if this continued, but as little issues have come up, they've squashed them, again one of the reasons why the stimulus went out so slow.
