Description: In this report, the Information Technology  and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) identifies  and analyzes the employment impact of  investments in three IT infrastructure projects  that (1) contribute to significant immediate  direct and indirect job growth in  our economy; (2) create a "network effect"  throughout the economy that, in some cases,  doubles the number of directly created  jobs; and (3) provide a foundation for longer  term benefits, including government  cost savings, economy-wide productivity,  and improved quality of life for Americans.  The three IT infrastructure projects  are broadband networks, health IT, and the  smart power grid.
