The hawaii government is the LARGEST employer of the state.
State Government
City and County
UH
Dept. of bullshit oh sorry Education
And all the other little agencies here and there to create jobs for incompetent people, but remember now, they also hire other incompetents to do their jobs so they no have to do notting.
And all of them vote D because if they don't, dey nomo job.
Then get all the Unions. The dems help them get non-competitive contracts.....wink wink.
Rinse and repeat, over and over.
This may be the REAL reason why industrial agriculture will never have a shot at taking off in this state, despite many places like Kauai having zoned ag land and the infrastructure to make it happen.
They know that if there's a huge industrial private employer that could mean trouble for their ability to influence the masses. They don't want a swath of their population to take their low skilled labor elsewhere and into the hands of the private sector, they may vote for conservative measures!
The Dems can easily throw up red and yellow tape and call it "enviromental impact studies" just to discourage anyone from even attempting to establish such an operation. All for what, so they can continue to
jerk off at their useless desks and "game" the system for anything they can fraud off of the federal government tit!
The GET tax structure is another component that allows them to control the people, as the only way you can get out of paying GETs throughout the year is to work for one of these "non-profits" or government orgs.
It's all being done by design so they can deadlock themselves into the population (appropriately, the population that participates in elections 30%).
