The news is full of stories about the unemployment rate being so high.

And while the private sector lost even more jobs, the government added 9,000 jobs (according to Bureau of Labor Statistics)

"In the private sector, construction, manufacturing, and business services all lost more than 100,000 jobs in February, and the service-providing sector lost more than 375,000 jobs, according to the BLS.

Yet public sector jobs grew in February, as they had in previous months. The government added 9,000 jobs last month, and the education and health service fields added 26,000 positions.

Back in January, the government sector added 31,000 jobs, while the education and health service fields grew by 43,000, according to the BLS.

These latest data follow a trend that has continued for more than a year. According to the BLS, the private sector lost an estimated 3.65 million jobs in 2008, but government jobs increased by nearly 150,000 in the same time period."

This is the totalitarianization of society. Individuals in the private sector will become more and more the victims of the totalitarian machine.

It was those smaller government Republicans at work. As usual failing miserably.
 
The solution to job creation is to stop outsourcing them. These created jobs are just window dressing. They will do everything except something that will actually work.
 
Having worked for the government my entire working career I can believe this. I am not opposed to "necessary" government jobs but reading this they seem to be growing a lot.....and it is cause for concern, I think.

It will completely separate our nation from rationality and actual value creation, and make it into a politicized dictatorship.
