[quote=paramount]TG: Are you kidding? Up to 80% of the current state deficit is directly or indirectly attributed to gov’t worker entitlements.

Yes, we do have a problem with welfare, but isn’t gov’t employment in no small way welfare in itself?

I really wish the term “Civil Servant” would be phased out, because we all know who the real servants are…[/quote]

Approximately 40% of our school and prison populations are comprised of illegal immigrants and/or their kids. Take away that burden (all the costs of all the infrastructure and employee expenses), and our state budget problems would largely be solved.

It was Tony Villa, he appended his wife’s name to the end of his.

Just have to add…

During the good times, public employers often have a difficult time finding qualified candidates. Believe it or not, plenty of teachers, firefighters, and cops left their civil service jobs to start selling real estate or mortgages during the bubble.

Some police departments were forced to drop a lot of their requirements (like when they had to hire people with criminal histories because they couldn’t get enough people with clean records to apply) just to get enough applicants to fill the vacancies.

Here’s what was going on in the LAPD. Fire and police departments in San Diego also had to offer these hiring bonuses to get enough people to apply. They were also poaching from other departments.
********

The LAPD and police departments around the country are engaged in an intense competition over an increasingly limited pool of suitable people interested in becoming cops.

In Los Angeles, the department is fortifying its recruitment efforts in its drive to beat out other departments and attract the elusive recruit. The department has increased its full-time recruitment team from two to 12. It is offering a $1,000 cash reward to any employee who brings in a successful recruit. And recruiters are hitting the college job-placement circuits.
