Thats bad. Thats screwing this theory up about as badly as you can.
Just employing people for the sake of employing them is a terrible policy, there has to be an end net benefit and the Government just hiring people doesnt provide that.

I take your point. However, it seems to presume that new hires are standing around doing nothing. However, if new staff are providing value like better educated young people, better maintained transportation infrastructure, healthier labour force, better organized bureacracy, it can have long term benefits for the province (just like new infrastructure).
