Nick Schulz at the American Enterprise Institute’s blog presents this graph:
I don’t think it will shock anyone that the top people in Democratic administrations tend to have less private-sector experience than their GOP counterparts. Yet the previous low-water mark for private-sector experience since 1900, the JFK administration, was still three times higher than the Obama Cabinet’s level.
Here’s what makes this background information about the Obama team even more interesting:
As Schulz notes, “public sector employment has ranged since the 1950s at between 15 percent and 19 percent of the population,” yet the Obama Cabinet got more than 90 percent of its prior experience in this relatively thin slice of America. So, the current Cabinet largely lacks a practical understanding of the country and companies which it now regulates — understanding that might come in handy now that our government is more enmeshed than ever with banks and auto makers, and is pushing for radically different rules for energy and health-care producers and consumers.

The blind leading the blind...
He sticks out like a sore thumb. It’s as if he came from another world.
“It’s as if he came from another world.” Maybe not that far but Kenya has little private sector economy.
Not only the Won, but also Nancy and Harry seem to be something other than human....and never would be mistaken for true Americans.
Not a cabinat but a water closet.
Whatever happened to the ‘d’emoncrat ideal of a cabinet that looks like America?

I pulled this out to demonstrate clearly what America is up against:http://thesteadydrip.blogspot.com/2009/11/aka-obama-adminstration-to-change-laws.html
And these fools think they can run car and oil companies as well as 1/6th of the US economy without even basic business knowledge? Frightening!
Who voted for these jackasses?
I really don’t know what everyone is whining about. It’s simply not reasonable to expect all of those Marxists, Maoists, Socialists and Communists in the Obamunist administration to have much private sector experience.
Besides, it clear Obama has all of those Marxists, Maoists, Socialists, and Communists in his administration for a reason, namely to replace U.S. free market capitalism with Marxism, Maoism, Socialism, and Communism. It’s all makes perfect sense, when you think about it.
