Do increases in the size of government (specifically, more public employees) help or hurt the economy? Here are the figures.

One of the things that always enters my mind in this kind of discussion. That is where does the money to pay for these jobs come from? Private Sector jobs are paid for by profit from private investment capital and the prospect of turning even more profit. Public Sector jobs are paid for mostly from tax dollars or from fees from regulations that may or may not be needed. The profit motive is what is missing in the Public Sector.

Using the word, "public" obfuscates the picture. Use the words, "government jobs" versus "real jobs".

What are "priate" jobs by-the-way? Isn't that a mineral?
