"It's very clear that private-sector jobs have been doing just fine; it's the public-sector jobs where we've lost huge numbers, and that's what this legislation is all about," Reid said on the Senate floor.
This approach is moving the United States in the direction of many developing countries, where surplus labor in the public sector is common. Activist governments in these countries react to high unemployment by creating – you guessed it – more government jobs. But the economic value added by the public sector workers tends to be low, while the resources used to pay them comes from taxing high productivity private sector workers and employers. So resources are transferred from high to low productivity activities. And as the private sector shrinks, the relative burden of the public sector increases, which then reduces private sector cash flow and discourages job-creating investment.
