Neither Mr. Rogers nor Mr. Johnson seem to understand the subject they are hired to teach, economics. I also have a PhD in economics along with an MA and MBA and I work for a large banking and financial services firm. Any notion that creating government jobs will lead to lower unemployment and a turnaround in the housing market simply ignores the fact that paying for those jobs means increasing taxes, taking money out of the private sector, significant job losses in the private sector and a worsening real estate market. It is the private sector's success which provides tax revenues to government. It is through private sector success that the real estate markets will turnaround. Government-created jobs always cost more than they produce.
