I spent time in the public service and so many very good at their jobs and employable any where.
Some however in my view would not get employement in the real world.. But they had work and pride and income to put into the system.
We wont tolerate such inefficiencies to give someone work and self pride and yet happy to glorify sports stars and pay them very well.
I have no problem with folk getting million dollar salaries but if they get that at least give everyone work at some meager wage....
There is a two layer system at work now and I guess what I would like to see is no one forced to live on the dole.. I think having work no matter how inefficient the worker may be is preferable to having them not working board and susceptible to substance abuse because of boardom.
I think foke get more from having a job than just a pay packet.
I think my thoughts on compulsory military service was an effort to give everyone work... I assumed no one would actually be going to war.
