Is going to help create jobs and "stimulate" the economy

Do you figure that maybe (just maybe), the, say, Department of Homeland Security headquarters isn't going to construct itself out of the blue, but that some actual human beings might have to get involved in construction? You know, with jobs and stuff?

Now whether or not these priorities are wise, I have no clue. But to say that it won't create any jobs would be silly.
