123,000 new jobs huh. How many will be paid for in total with tax dollars or heavily subsidised? 122,000?
246,000
Think of how many more jobs they could create by outlawing power excavating machinery. Half of Mexico would be employed in construction in Dallas alone. (If they aren't alread.)
In fact, if they outlaw shovels and require teaspoons, they could employ all of China as well.
