They just pay them more.

Consider the largest service provided by state and local government — elementary and secondary schooling.

Must we?

I had an encounter with a gummint employee Friday.
I went to the Social Security office to show them my birth certificate, because they got my birthday wrong by a month and I missed my very first social security check. They told me that I’d need to get a new birth certificate, because the one I had was too old (original 70 years old) and it didn’t correspond with their records.
I have now filed a petition for formal hearing where I hope I don’t have to speak to the same 250 lb, 5ft-1in woman.

Side note: I counted the people at the SS office when I was there. I was the only one out of 61 people waiting for service who wasn’t a muz refugee.

Numbers are BS.

According to the Census Bureau, Michigan had 437,560 "Full Time Equivalent" State and Local Government employees in 2014. The population estimate for 2014 is 9.91 million.

So that's 4.4%.
