Because there are many industries who could lean hard on that 'jobs' excuse as a rationale to beg borrow and steal billions. For instance IT, let's give them billions so they reverse the export of hundreds of thousands of jobs out of the US. Drug companies - who do a great deal of manufacturing in the Caribbean, let's fork over billions to them so they'll bring back jobs to the US. And so on.
It will awesome to see the line of people around the block demanding their bailout to 'save jobs'. Oh that won't happen you say? Too bad. I should have barely got out of HS and worked the line at GM for 30 years. I'd be happier than a Hindu cow.
