Where jobs should be

“Where we’re seeing weaknesses in our economy have to do with state and local government. Oftentimes, cuts initiated by, you know, governors or mayors who are not getting the kind of help that they have in the past from the federal government,” he said. “And so, you know, if Republicans want to be helpful, if they really want to move forward and put people back to work, what they should be thinking about is how do we help state and local governments.”

(Highlight: “put people back to work” “help state and local governments.” Will there come a time when 40 percent of workers support 100 percent of the population? If so, and if 60 percent of voters vote, government serfs elect more fillers of the trough. Why slap the hand that passes out the money?)
