Thanks for the ad material Harry!
By the way, Obama does this all the time too. On his bus tour touting his jobs bill he always talks about putting teachers and cops back to work. It's always about public sector workers, never anything about the crushing burden this hiring puts on people not working for the state.
The public sector is shedding jobs at a high rate. The private sector is actually adding jobs.
Yup. I wouldn't say that the private sector is doing great, but the main reason why job growth is so slow is because state and local governments are delaying contracts and laying off workers. And this isn't really helping private workers either, since people who have no jobs also have much less money to spend.

Adding public sector jobs WE have to pay for is NOT going to help the economy. They added government jobs two years ago and howd that turn out? More public sector jobs with outrageous benefits and pensions is NOT what this country needs.
Why don't we focus on adding jobs that don't cost taxpayer money?
