Sunday, August 21st, 2011

How many jobs were taken out of the private sector and moved into the federal government under the Bush Administration? How many private contractors lost their business when Bush moved these jobs? How much was added to the federal budget when these jobs were moved from private contractors into government service?
acidBUR – The Bush Administration authorized TSA and under TSA all airport security screening (-4 airports) beasme a federal job thus private sector jobs were taken over by governemnt employees adding thousands of new federal employees and billions of dollars in wages as the fed employees are paid almost 3 times what the private security paid.

How many total jobs lost during the Bush Administration?

Sunday, September 12th, 2010

I am doing a comparative discussion in a class I teach about job growth and loss. I can find the "jobs added" or "lost" for just about every other administration, but I can’t find the total jobs added/lost for the Bush Administration. I know by the end of his first term there were 1.1 million jobs lost, but what about inclusive of the second term?

Thanks in advance.
