The reason I'm asking is that, sometimes when the government gives these grants to companies, it does so as though the money is falling from the heavens rather than being raised out of the hands of workers and entrepreneurs in the real economy. If the government gives out $1 billion, it first had to take that billion dollars away from a disparate group of people spread across the entire economy. When we have officials come here and claim that their grants have created x number of jobs, they never tell us how many jobs they killed to take that money out of the economy in the first place.
Could your office provide us with a model to explain how many job losses we have for, say, every million dollars of extra tax the government collects, for example?
