A million new jobs?

Today, February 23, 2010 The White House claimed the $1,000,000,000,000 ( one trillion)stimulus created 1,000,000 new jobs in the past year.
Please forgive me if I don't appear to overwhelmed or over joyed, but even if this is true, which I doubt, my calculator tells me the cost per job was $1,000,000 (that's one million dollars) per created job of taxpayer money.
I am not stupid, but I am dumbfounded. Where is the rational in this? $1,000,000 per job? With 15,000,000 unemployed we could spend another $15 trillion and have zero unemployment.
Utopia!!!!!!
