I enjoy your responses. And honestly didnt think this thread was THAT bad ( compared to others)

Your title doesn't even match your post. Animosity towards government works is about the job protections they have that discourage efficiency (or at least do not particularly reward it).
I respect job protections because I admittedly look out for the worker more often. However, I never meant to suggest they shouldn't be productive. Lazy workers come in all forms. Some companies are more strict, but do you really believe all of them are. Especially retail, food service, grocery, etc.

post was about the economic benefit of private vs public sector jobs. Which is just dumb. You cannot build an economy off of public sector jobs. Regionally you might (like you say, in rural areas) but that is still a net loss for the state.
I completely agree you need private industry to keep any country ( in our case, individual states) to function properly. My example for the rural economy was to demonstrate how many regions of the country rely solely on those jobs, not that they are more productive for the country at large. It was not my intent to confuse.

Name one region that relies solely on Gov jobs. This should be good.
