If only government jobs are being added, who will pay the salaries of those extra workers? The U.S. population rises about 1% a year , so the size of the private labor force relative to the population has fallen 10% over the last decade. Democratic politicians welcome and accelerate such trends.

This should come as no surprise. The government and many citizens think the private sector is ‘evil’. Greedy, selfish and whatever. The problem is the private sector creates new businesses, creates new jobs, and pays taxes. The government creates nothing. It is a parasite and lives off the private sectors profits. The very sector it is, along with many envious and jealous citizens, trying its very best to destroy. And when it does, all but those few in power and control, will live in misery. That should make everyone happy. Especially the politicians.

“But few expect that manufacturing will reverse its long decline as a major employer in the United States.”
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Ahh, but they couldn’t be more wrong! Manufacturing means making things. Huge numbers are being recruited by Acorn to make trouble. We will need at least a hundred thousand full time people to make excuses for the failure of the socialist schemes hatched in Washington. We will need another hundred thousand to make all the passports for people who want to leave this country. We will need huge numbers to make ammunition and guns for the civil war about to erupt. We will need construction people to make tarpaper shacks for us to live in. MILLIONS of retired printers will be called back to work to print all the worthless paper money that will be needed. Millions will make herbal remedies when the Obama medical scheme fails. There will be a booming business making caskets for all the millions who will starve after the government wrecks the food production industry that has made us all fat. Speaking of fat, the ones who don’t starve will need smaller clothing so there will be a boom in making American made clothing. Foreign manufacturers will no longer accept our currency so we will have to make everything we use here. There will be plenty of work for anyone who knows how to make whiskey that will dull the pain of living in,”The greatest country on Earth”. Manufacturing is going to see the biggest boom since the industrial revolution. Rah, rah, heil Obama!

State job number on upswing despite recession

By George Avalos

California’s state government has managed to add thousands of jobs
during this past year, defying a mammoth budget deficit and a brutal
recession.

The job growth for state workers contrasts with the loss of 759,000
jobs in California’s private industry in the past 12 months

not to mention gubermint employees and their pensions...

Reform advocates are spotlighting those with extravagant pensions
— $100,000 or more — as a way to get the public’s attention and
emphasize that the current system is unsustainable.
