“Adding to a disturbing pattern of recent months, the jobs gained in December were exclusively in the private sector.” – D. Matthews
Disturbing? This sounds like good news to me – smaller government means less inefficiently.
Unless you are greedy and selfish…then, only then, you are better off with those government “officials”…
The military is notorious for theft and loss, and they have a saying that applies well to gov. workers as a whole.
“There’s only one thief in the Army, everyone else is trying to get their stuff back.”
We have such a giant bureaucratic machine that most employees who are really decent people structurally compound issues caused by the few “greedy and selfish” ones.
@Gabriel Odom
Better rule mean less inefficiency, less employees enforcing the same rule could mean more.
It kind of sucks to be a contruction worker during a recession.
