Bureacrats losing jobs
I watched a 15 min report last night on may local TV station about the county losing 27 jobs in the dept. of social services. I found it interesting the amount of concern the media gave this and yet they spent 30 seconds announcing the closing of a manufacturing plant that employed 40 workers. It is an example of the way Americans worship ALL THINGS that have to do with the government and hate the private sector.

Personally...I'm thrilled that 27 bureaucrats will now be unemployed.05-stirthepot

We'd all be better off if we could put a few zeros after the 27.

Fo, you're right. It's too bad that people don't care more about the factory. But, they've been conditioned to believe that nothing can be done if the gov't doesn't do it.

That's the beauty of it.

Maybe we need term limits on ALL gov't employees. Then those people will have to keep the bureaucracy down.

Do you mean just all elected gov't employees or just ALL of them?

All of them. The non-elected ones are probably more dangerous.

I don't think that'll work. Federal government jobs are also worked by people living paycheck to paycheck.

To reduce the size of government....Give top level bureaucrats large bonus checks like AIG providing that they reduce the size of their bureaucracy by 25% each year. Government would shrink immediately.05-stirthepot

The reason government grows is that bureaucrats are rewarded for making it larger by increased budgets. We need to give them incentives to shrink the size of their bureaucracies not grow them.03-idea

Yes...Most viewers of that report never even stop and think that it is the factory and its workers that have been providing the income for those 27 bureaucrats.

In California 1 out of every 300 people is employed directly or indirectly by the state. There's 37,000,000 fruits and veggies out here - do the math.
