We encourage you to find a job in the private sector as soon as you would like to do so. The way to greater American prosperity is encouraging people to move from lower productivity jobs in the public sector to higher productivity jobs in the private sector.

Damn dude, this is so awesome, I’ve literally never been tied to this fuck through even consumption and now I have him pulling on my chains, at the best possible time cursed-woog

The public sector can be wasteful, absolutely, but in the private sector that waste is inherent and even considered good.

Also most (not all but most) of the waste in the public sector is because the public sector outsources things to private companies. Like, the NIH doesn’t have shareholders and it’s executives don’t make hundreds of millions of dollars a year, the waste in the NIH is when they hire contractors instead of real staff and outsource things to private companies instead of doing it in house.

This is even true with the military, most of the corruption and waste goes to weapons companies and contractors. If the US government made all of its weapons itself with federal workers in government owned factories it would spend a lot less.

Yeah, so outside of the capitalist system it's great, but inside it it works hand in glove. Private enterprise is also profit free when it's employee owned.
