The focus should be on jobs, public or private. Imagine the dent to the local economy in destroying the earnings potential for thousands of people who also contribute much of that paycheck right back into the local economy...not farming it out for overseas investment.
If you think two years is time enough to get something as big as the government moved in a different direction, let alone redact already existing legislation, then I have a job for you coaching the Cleveland Browns. You can get us to a Super Bowl in two years apparently.
The sectors do align, where they can. As was said by a wise man...what's the private sector equivalent of a police officer?
Try to spin it as you want, but the country's economy almost collapsed solely due to the PRIVATE sector. Keep worshipping at the altar of the almighty Dollar and one of these days, it might fart out a nickel in your direction.
Bob hagan what a joke. The consummate leach off the system. Any chance to get the headline he's there. And all the protesters had their three day weekend (paid) while the private sector worked.
