Job growth is job growth. I don't much care where it comes from. We all pay for private sector jobs too when we buy the products. And they all pay taxes!
So, the bigger the government gets, the better off we are, right?

Administration brings back one-year Treasury security
Administration brings back one-year Treasury bill to cope with soaring budget deficits
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Bush administration, moving to cope with soaring budget deficits, says it is bringing back the one-year Treasury bill that it stopped issuing seven years ago when the budget was in surplus.
yeah right . they need to put the shoe on the other foot . ask the homeless how they feel about the economy . better yet i think the oval office should take a stroll through south central and ask the folks there how they are taking the economy .

You know better than that! The smaller government gets, the better off we all are!! The smaller government gets the more prosperous the private sector, and people in general, will become; and therefore the more taxes we will generate, making it possible for the government to grow in productive ways.
Your extrapolations sometimes give me whiplash...

So this is bad news after all, just as I thought, right? Am I missing something here?
