I can see we are not getting anywhere here.

Shovel ready jobs need to be verified by the funding agencies to meet minimum qualification standards....that doesnt happen overnight. A month or two is not an unreasonable time frame, IMO....I guess it is for you.

And as far as I know, the only money that has been disbursed so far are the state/local emergency relief funds to support expansion of unemployment comp or to prevent layoffs of teachers and police and other similar priorities.
