The elimination of public sector jobs has an impact on the growth of private sector jobs, as any job loss slows the economy.
Correct, the disastrous consequence of blind adherence to conservative dogma, the inane small government fantasy that can never be realized if the Nation is to remain strong and the economy is to recover.
If we were smart, we would begin a process of taking the government jobs and converting them to private sector over the next 10-20 years. Why does the mail have to be done by the government? I think we could privatize the DMV as well.
Recall that there are many important services provided by government both individuals and corporations need to survive and flourish, many of these services are appropriate for government only to provide, as they are motivated by public service, not profit.
the phony argument by the right wingers on this message board that Obama has caused the higher unemployment of women and Romney's constant lie that Obama has made our economy worse.
The loss of public sector jobs as with private sector is a consequence of the December 2007 recession and its aftermath, having noting to do with Obamas policies.
