Once again every sector lost jobs except government. We need to reverse
that trend and have government jobs move into the private sector.
Unfortunately, Obama's promises mean bigger government.

Gubmint jobs are not that big of a problem
it's the benefits packages which exceed the median private sector's level
and the pay grades
here in Lost Angeles in the great state of Mexico Norte, we pay department
heads high 6 figure to low 7 figure salaries... and Lost Angeles
beaureauacy is a grand-mal clusterfuck of mismanagement
I think clusterfucks of grand-mal porportions should cost about 35-40k a
year with a bene package with a 5k deductable

That's how unions killed the steel industry, then the auto industry,
then the airline industry, and almost the state of California.
But MS, don't you believe in Keynesian economics? A bigger government
is an important "shock absorber" for an economy in recession. As the
private sector shrinks, the public sector grows, and demand stays
strong, leading to a smaller recession than otherwise.
Even Austrian (non-Keynesian) economists agree that this Keynesian
plan has worked, but have added a caveat that as public debt grows,
there comes a point--a tipping point--where debt cannot be easily
repaid and it leads to either hyperinflation or a default by
government (as happened in Russia in 1998).
Surely we cannot be at such a tipping point yet, can we? I say we
have another good 20 years to go.

This and you are the reason america is headed into the shitter.
Obama is not yet close to the throne and yet you blame and cast
aspersions
at him? Give your empty head a shake and understand it don't matter
where a job, a meal or a dollar comes from. . . . you guys are not
only broke,
you are deadbeats.
Not only are you living far beyond means, you are asking the world to
join
you. The downside of unnatural growth is contraction and depression,
the
markets are starting to price that.

Obama is a very bright person... his democratic base is comprised of
many in govt, and many on the benefits end of govt. ... accordingly if
he wants to get elected he will not alienate these.
Bill clinton was in a similar class... once elected though he reduced
the size of govt (unlike most republican adminstrations btw despite
their claims to the contrary)
I think Obama will, on balance reduce the size of govt drastically,
and possibly move many govt functions into the private sector or
institute programs such as FDR did in the 30's to provide employment
by building the infrastructue... there is no other way to dig out of
this massive mess we are in besides becoming more productive.
goods, and infrastructure production. If he is smart, and many
think he is, his record is surely one requiring great intelligence...
he will move in these directions regardless what it took to pacify
aspects of his support base.
I am looking forward to his introducing a crash nuclear power program
(opposed by much of the democratic party), that will make us energy
independence as soon as those are on line... typically that takes 8
to 10 years per reactor... Im in the business, there is no shortage of
us that know full well that we can devise ways to get these built and
on line in half the time... that will create millions of jobs, and
stop the 70 billion dollars a month bleeding for foreign oil as we can
then use our abundance of natural gas to operate our cars (an easy
conversion, already common).... similar measures in the size of govt
imo... that bloat has not been recognized as a fatal disease by the
majority... but it is, I doubt if he has failed to notice that.
