The Obama administration has the least private sector experience than any other presidential cabinet in more than a century, however, they are in overkill mode when it comes to corruption.  How much faith can Americans have in this administration?  We are talking big government, all of whom are huge on political mayhem and red tape, but no private sector experience.  How can we trust them to do what’s right?  Common sense tells us that these thieves will leave us worse for the wear. What can they possibly do right?

Help Wanted, No Private Sector Experience Required

“It examines [the chart] the prior private sector experience of the cabinet officials since 1900 that one might expect a president to turn to in seeking advice about helping the economy. It includes secretaries of State, Commerce, Treasury, Agriculture, Interior, Labor, Transportation, Energy, and Housing & Urban Development, and excludes Postmaster General, Navy, War, Health, Education & Welfare, Veterans Affairs, and Homeland Security—432 cabinet members in all.

When one considers that public sector employment has ranged since the 1950s at between 15 percent and 19 percent of the population, the makeup of the current cabinet—over 90 percent of its prior experience was in the public sector—is remarkable.”

Translation: Fewer than 18% of Barack Obama’s cabinet has private sector experience.

“The entire idea of this country is to build a better mousetrap and people will beat a path to your doorway”.

Suddenly I hear Tom Hanks as Forrest Gump saying, “stupid is as stupid does.”
