JEDI Clients Creating Local Jobs - at 1/20 the Cost of Stimulus Plan

Even in Bad Economy, Entrepreneurs Creating Local Jobs

Last year - in the face of the worst economy in decades - Jefferson Economic Development Institute (JEDI) clients created approximately 150 full and part time jobs in Siskiyou county - at a cost of less than $2,500 per job.

By contrast, non-partisan economists suggest jobs created by the just-signed federal economic stimulus package will cost approximately $60,000 -$70,000 each (figures as high as $200,000+ have been cited, but seem to have been discredited).

Existing state programs? They expect job creation to cost approximately $35,000.

In recessionary periods, small and micro-businesses provide critical job growth - especially in rural areas, which often don't benefit significantly from stimulus spending. JEDI provides business services to this essential segment of the business world, supporting entrepreneurs, some of whom may have been laid off and want to retain control of their own financial destiny.

While JEDI's economic development mission draws little fanfare, it has consistently - and cost-effectively - created jobs and wealth in Siskiyou County.
