7. CNN $272K per job
This morning, CNN was running a story that part of the stimulus program was costing $272,000 per job. I didn't catch which part. The newscasters said it shows how hard it is for the government to create jobs.

If it was a construction project, that could make sense because of the costs of materials, etc.
