    While we’re in a recession the private sector is eliminating jobs and freezing pay hikes. Meanwhile, the federal workforce is growing and pay is climbing like there is no tomorrow.

    What’s the difference? The private sector requires workers be productive. The states are forced to live within their means. Yet, the federal workforce is control by powerful unions and the government has the ability to borrow today and foist the cost of future taxpayers.

    Bruce, could that be why government is the cause of so many crises?
