Ben, other then government jobs name 1 that's 1 job Obama created on his own. I had to edit this, I was talking about the United States not all the green jobs (Taxpayer funded) he sent over seas.
from fact check:
Obama is referring to the increase in private-sector jobs from February 2010 to May 2012. He uses February 2010 as the starting point, because that was the low point for private employment at 106,773,000 jobs. It’s been going up ever since. Right now, it’s at 111,040,000 — an increase of 4,267,000 jobs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
So, the president is correct about the number of jobs created in the last 27 months.
.....
and this part compares Obama's record to peak employment levels of the past:
The U.S. has gained about 55,000 private-sector jobs since Obama became president in January 2009, but overall there has been a total job loss of 552,000 — all because of the decline in government jobs."
and by doing some simple math we can conclude that Obama has actually cut nearly 500,000 gubt jobs.
