THAT MUCH? The California Clean Energy Jobs Act (Prop.39) that raised taxes on corporations to fund energy efficient projects in schools and create clean energy jobs has generated less than a tenth of the promised jobs.

The Associated Press reported that the Clean Energy Jobs Act (Prop. 39) has only created 1,700 clean energy jobs, despite initial predictions it would generate more than 11,000 each year beginning in fiscal year 2013-14.

And more than half of the $297 million given to schools for the projects has been funneled to leeches consultants and energy auditors.

Surprise, surprise. Throwing money at stupidity is just a fast way to create poverty.
