Yes, jessi- in fact he and his cronies who are claiming to cut spending have hired a lawyer to defend DOMA now that the DOJ says it will no longer defend it. Guess who’s paying for that?
in the US today there are
twice as many people working for government at all
levels than there are working in manufacturing: 22.5 million people working for
government; 11.5 million working in manufacturing.
In 1960, rather than the 2:1
ratio of government workers to manufacturing works
extant now, the ratio then was almost 2:1 the other way;
that is, back in ’60 there were 15 million people in the US
working in manufacturing and only 8.7 million working in
government.
Over the years
the federal government’s anti-poverty program has blown
up into 122 separate programs, which each having its
own hierarchy; its own rules; its own bureaucracy, and
they cost taxpayers $591 billion in ’09 alone… the last
year apparently for which he had hard data. He notes
that that is approximately $59,000 for every “povertyâ€
family of four in the US, much of which gets lost of course
in the bureaucratic red tape and never makes its way to
those it was intended to serve.
We produce world class bureaucracies…
sufficient to employ two people for every one in
manufacturing. If it weren’t so sad, this really would be funny

Did John Boehner go to the “we want gay marriage petition” school of rhetoric?
