It's estimated for every $1 billion we spend on road construction, nearly 48,000 jobs are created.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
In terms of job creation, every billion dollars invested in the physical infrastructure creates 47,000 new jobs.
For every $1 billion we invest in public transportation, we create 30,000 jobs, save thousands of dollars a year for each commuter, and dramatically cut greenhouse gas emissions.
Not only does investing in your infrastructure provide very good construction jobs, at the end of the project, you have something.
We're the largest home improvement company today, and we did $30 billion last year, or less than 10 percent of the total amount of building materials sold in the U.S. So when people ask, how much runway left does Home Depot have, it's an awful lot.
We have built tens of thousands of schools, clinics and rural roads.
Infrastructure spending does not create immediate jobs, and more than half of those jobs will pull from the pool of the already employed.
We must invest in infrastructure development and rebuilding communities to create jobs.
We should make a major financial commitment to improving our roads and bridges.
The road is a lot of work.
Building new roads and bridges creates jobs. Growing our exports creates jobs. Reforming our outdated tax system and our broken immigration system creates jobs.
