Like that ratio. Laid off government workers should be required to fill a job created by the Obama economy. Basically they can start at the bottom and work their way back up.

I consider it a good start. We need to prune more than that many government workers at all levels to get the state down to a reasonable size.

Excellent! I’d love to see continued losses in government jobs - combined with increased overall employment.

As the old joke about “Lawyers at the bottom of the Sea” ends... “It’s a start!”

That explains the reason every time I go to Home Depot, I got someone at the exit trying to sell me solar panels for my house. My reply to them is one word. Solyndra.

Just checking, can we trust the labor market data now? Have all the liberal moles who were faking the numbers for Obama been purged?

Building the Wall jobs, closing off U.S. from drugs, coyotes, human sex slavery crime on our Southern Border!

Only jobs fit for former State Department and IRS liars.

Being caught after being deported, say, twice should incure a short life sentence.

Why so? We want a physical wall, not a "strongly worded" warning!

Now, if they were stacked up end-to-end in layers, that would be enough material for a wall, if any mortar could be found that would actually stick to such slippery things.
