Not generally. But a few are.

On the other hand, while private enterprise is certainly to be favored over government enterprise as a general rule, not all activities of government are evil and harmful. And certainly, everybody working for government are not useless parasites.

Both sides tend to overstate their cases as absolutes. I believe that reality lies in the middle ground between the Manichaeistic visions of the AFL-CIO and Forbes Magazine.
