Seen in the comments on Howard Taylor’s Schlock Mercenary blog:

What this country needs is a 6% unemployment rate. With rates in the low fours, the otherwise unemployables get hired and inflict themselves on the rest of society.

I consider that a backwards endorsement of my contention that we’re getting the bureaucracy we pay for; e.g. city employees are underpaid. What with the sex offenders and other criminals turning up, I’m a little unhappy over what we’re hiring these days. In related news, the audit of city employee bonus pay has been published. Don’t hold your breath looking for political bombshells or embarrassing revelations in there. Annise Parker knows how to play ball.
