“The government can supply no substitute for enterprise.”

-Calvin Coolidge (30th U.S. President. 1872-1933)

Anyone else troubled by the following? Martin Hill (no relation) wrote on Examiner.com this past Monday:

The most recent Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) from the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) reveals that the majority of jobs for the top principal employers in six counties are government jobs.

In the six southern California counties of Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside, Ventura and Imperial, more than half of the top employers in those counties, on average, are government entities.

You can read the entire report here.
