[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just post after post with the “open to work” logo from people who are highly qualified for jobs that don’t exist anymore. [b]All these people with fancy PhDs and highly specialized experience that I can’t imagine would be useful outside the federal government.[/b] I really hope that the private sector cuts them some slack.

That you can't see the irony in what you wrote here is astounding.[/quote]

NP and I don't see the irony.  The beauty of government jobs is that the mission can be helping people.  It doesn't have to be profit.  There are hundreds of thousands of professionals who have built specialized careers around helping people, and now their entire field is gone.  I see no irony in that.[/quote]

Dp. Your response makes me slide towards agreeing with the orange’s goal (still not the process).

A government’s job should be [b]to support our society so it can become a better functioning society, eventually resulting in a better economic position[/b]. Not just ‘helping people.’  Helping people to what end that will benefit society as a whole?

That’s what the mission should be. [/quote]

I don't understand the distinction you are trying to make. Helping people accomplishes the bolded text you wrote. The bolded text is the government's mission and can be shorthanded as "helping people." Society as a whole benefits - yes, economically - when people are helped.
