I've never really thought the green jobs movement was much of a good idea. I feel like the economy is a little too deep in the mud to be worrying about that. We need to wait until everything is fixed to begin investing in less stable investments.

On the other hand, congressional republicans keep blocking infrastructure bills that would create jobs, so it's not like this is Obama's only attempt at stimulating the economy.
