Only a liberal would think expansion of government is a good thing.
Why not?
If government can do some things more efficiently than individuals...why shouldn't they?
What exactly does the government do more efficiently?
They couldnt even protect gov workers private info.
Do you build and maintain your own roads?
Do you hire your own police protection?
Do you verify the safety of your drinking water, food and drugs?
Hire your own teachers?
Do you maintain your own legal system?
Many, many things are done better collectively than individually
A private company could do it for half the price.
Bull shit. Another BIG LIE by another partisan hack. Libertarians are no different than utopian socialists. That is fixated on an idea, a fantasy, devoid of any critical thought or pragmatism.
You make that out to be a good thing.
Why wouldn't it be?
No society can function without a government

...Cons say Obama doesn't deserve credit for cutting unemployment in have, because the government can't create jobs.
But now Jeb Bush is promising to create 19 million jobs. And Trump is promising to create the most jobs of any previous POTUS.
Hypocrisy IS the GOP.
You are as usual, confused.
The government does NOT create jobs and both Bush and Trump would tell you that. If you had a functioning brain cell to your name, you'd know what they meant but you are an idiot so it has to be explained to you.
What they mean is to create an environment where private businesses can create jobs. Like reducing taxes, giving tax incentives, cutting regulations, and basically getting the goverent out if the way.
Another ignorant left wing nut thread killed. My job is done here.
Who created the millions of jobs in the defense department? Including the men and women in uniform?
Who created public school teaching and non-teaching jobs?
Who created the jobs in law enforcement?
Who created the jobs for every business that has business with the government?

And if you think the gov builds all roads you're an idiot.
These guys build a shitload of roads in Texas and they usually finish early and if not below budget at least on budget.

Here's the problem... The government CAN create jobs.... tons of them! Each job they create is paid for by the taxpayer and the rate of pay is determined by tenure and longevity rather than free market capitalist economics. There is essentially no relationship between pay and performance or production. Wages are determined by formulas and tables unrelated to the free market.
In a free market society, these government jobs often are in direct competition with the private sector, which means they force private businesses to offer higher pay to compete. This means the cost of living goes up the more government jobs we create.
The real pitfall is, we can never create enough government jobs to bail out a struggling economy. In fact, more government jobs being funded by the taxpayer has the opposite effect. To improve the economy, the overwhelming majority of new jobs created should come from private sector capitalists. Liberals hear those three words and go into epileptic seizures because they are anti-capitalist Socialists.

Exactly! I get so fed up with the stupid liberal meme about the fucking roads and bridges! Anywhere a road or bridge is needed, the town, county or state vote to use state funds to build it. That's what the state and local governments do, not the federal government. Reason being, it's not fair for me (in Alabama) to pay for a bridge or road in Michigan or Alaska. I'm not going to receive any benefit from that and I shouldn't be obligated to pay for it. If the people of Michigan or Alaska want a road or bridge, let them pay for one. If we need one here, we'll do the same.
Government pay is determined by free market and comparisons to what equivalent private sector jobs are paying
Government jobs can be created to bail out a struggling economy. Infrastructure can be built, deferred maintenance can be performed, police, fire and teachers can be hired
If the economy is really struggling, we can always start a war
The Government creates millions of jobs
2 million federal employees, state and local employees, policemen, firemen, teachers....
The entire defense industry is created by the governement
Do you realize that local, state and federal are all GOVERNMENT?

Nope... Government pay is certainly NOT determined by free market comparisons or federal employees would make the same as their private sector counterparts and they don't. Unproductive or inefficient employees would be dismissed instead of promoted and given raises based on tenure.
All you are doing with the idea of government bailing out the economy is creating more tax burden for people who work in the private sector and causing prices to go up. There is not one damn thing in the Constitution about the federal government building infrastructure, hiring policemen or firemen, or even teachers. Those are all STATE responsibilities delegated to the states and their people to decide.

They bought them with taxpayer dollars. Those kind of jobs don't help the economy nut ball.

Interesting...does Williams Brothers buy the land and build the roads with their own money or public funds? Do they maintain and police the roads?
Do you realize that local, state and federal are all GOVERNMENT?
They're not FEDERAL government and that's what you are advocating.

Nope..the whole point is they can do it on budget and on time thus using our tax dollars wisely.
