I wonder what the unemployment is among politicians, voters, applications for government employment.
Politicians must have at least fifty percent unemployment. What do losing politicians do? Is there someone watching them when they are out of office? They make enough mischeif when they are in the spotlight. Just think what they can do when no one is watching.
Voters. Between ten percent and ninety percent unemployment depending on the race. Maybe the pay isn't good enough to attract voters?
Applicants for government employment. I was told the City of Oakland advertised about fifty vacant positions for fire fighters. About five thousand people showed up to interview for fifty positions.
