The process generously rewards the elite, leftists whites who are in charge of these wealth redistribution programs. A lot of conservatives hate government employees. What they don’t understand is there are different types of government employees. There are some careers, like engineering, where a degree really is necessary and the government employees make less than their free market peers. There are many, many more government jobs that require degrees where none are really needed and pay way more than the skills are worth. These jobs are handed out based on the color of your skin and who you know. They only appear to be competitively advertised.

No. This isn’t true. Engineers in government tend to be less employable in the true private sector. When all benefits are included they will earn the same or more than an average engineer in the private sector - and they tend to be less bright, less capable, and less deserving of ‘average’ compensation. Since you’re generalizing, so am I, granted.
