As of February 2015, the latest period for which data is available, there were 593,300 government jobs in Michigan
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
Unemployed = 300,000+
Cut government jobs in half. Send the rest of those employed by government to the unemployment line. Hire those currently unemployed for half the pay and no benefits/perks to sit at those "government" jobs and figure out ways to eliminate their jobs.
Debt $74,326,828,333
Debt divided by current "government" employees = $125,269 per "government" employee.
Send each of the current "government" employees their bill.

Government jobs are not "jobs." That is, they do not create any wealth. At best they protect wealth (firemen, policemen), or they foster the creation of wealth (teachers). They are a drain on the wealth-producing part of the economy. Some level of government "jobs" can be beneficial. However, when the drain on the economy offsets the benefits, they become a net loss. I think Michigan has gone well beyond the point where government "jobs" are beneficial to the rest of the economy.
