This guy knows nothing of privatization. The gaps in his argument are too vast to even acknowledge (with the amount of characters given). But I will say, I admire how he compares government workers to be the equivalent to Walmart min. wage employees (we're in good hands everyone) and how he managed to so brilliantly point out the gross nepotism that runs rampant in our local gov. which has most likely blocked out many more highly qualified candidates (around 3:15). What a joke!

accountability is key, when the subcontractors can charge the government 5000 bucks for a 10 dollar hammer and justify it the costs of these services skyrocket to fill the pockets of the already rich and the wannabees. And like you pointed out the outsourcing of American jobs only destroys the fabric that holds America together.

Great post.

Excellent piece, Cory. I'm going to see to it that the people and especially public employee unions here in Wisconsin get a pointer to this very accessible video.

I've gotta ask...what is that that accent? Very odd. It sounds like a mixture of deep south and valley girl.

Good video though

anytime , a contract is made, it can be a closed bid system, which monopolizes the free market system , once again , the tax payer picks up the tab to slush fund a corporate favored ongoing campaign kickback....

its a well known common Conservative Corporatist strategy to re distribute the wealth to line their pockets from the bottom up.

that is why they cut funding to tax programs that help the bottom up, is to move it to their foundations, libraries, bank accounts etc;
