“My initial measure of success is creating or saving 4 million jobs,” President Obama said Monday night. But it raises three questions:
- How do we know which ones would have disappeared?
- How do we know which ones will be saved for a limited time only?
- How do we know which jobs would have been created but aren’t because we’ve temporarily avoided the loss of others?
It’s not like companies have to apply to threaten to close, like Goodyear did in NC a couple years ago. Maybe he really can see what is not seen.
