I was surprised to see a news story at the HuffPo about public sector employees making $12+ an hour more than private sector employees. I mean, Bush is out of office, after all.
What I wasn’t surprised by was the HuffPo regulars comments stating that it is only the fault of private sector employees for not going into government work.
The chief difference: public employees are doing necessary work while private employees are trying to convince use of what brand of pickles to buy.
Kind bunch of folks they got over there, ain’t it?
It’s all about the dominance of the SEIU.

The sheer ignorance of that statement is amazing.
No, ignorance is correctable. I’m convinced it’s sheer stupidity.
