    A funny little report which only touches on really how much is spent. Wish i kept my indesign report file

    But costs about 90K per year to create a 25hr(roughly 50K) job. The report also doesn't measure growth and pains of such little tax revenue for the growth in the community and infrastructure and how it is all effected.

    I actually believe people think its moral to spend 90K of collective funds to pay for a 50K job. I don't think they care enough bigger picture than their dopamine hit of good intentions. But for it to be the popular reaction says so much and more than likely goes back to following pedestals at education levels. Clearly logically unsustainable but regarded as good. That shit is dogmatic belief. I dont even have much hope people will wake up here because too many immigrants from CA hoping they can have their cake and eat it too.
