The Obama administration gave corporate giant General Electric—the parent company of NBC–$24.9 million in grants from the $787-billion economic “stimulus” law President Barack Obama signed in February 2009, according to records posted by the administration at Recovery.gov.
Despite getting $24.9 million from U.S. taxpayers, GE decreased its U.S.-based employees by 18,000 in 2009, according to the company’s 2009 annual report.

It’s called, ” pay back time ” as far as the stimulus goes and the 18,000 layoffs are a drop in the bucket compared to 9,680,000 jobs lost according to Forbes since 2008.
What happened to our 870 billion stimulus and our shovel ready jobs? I wonder which obot wants to come forward and defend this atrocity? Oh I know, silly me, it’s bush’s fault.
