Or teaspoons.

So you think we hire soldiers, cops, letter carriers, etc as a job
program, and if those programs were privatized, they would automate or
something to provide at least as good of service with much fewer
workers?

I suppose you are comparing them to other large companies such as
General Motors.

Those two paragraphs are kind of contradictory. Neither Educated
people nor intelligent people are immune to the evils of racism.

Resentful, me? No. I don't have big education, nor do I hate big
business. I have become quite adept at using both to my advantage.

I am quite happy with my life. Good career, good wife, great kids and
I'll be retiring at 56 without a drop in my standard of living.
