Government Expansion
The federal sector is growing at its fastest pace in decades. Over the past
two years total federal civil service employment has increased 10%, an
additional 182,629 workers. Jobs are available nationwide and overseas and
additional growth is projected due to recent legislation.
The new health care legislation calls for the formation of 150 new regulatory
agencies and commissions and many more federal regulators are needed to manage
failed banks and the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) funds.
The federal government now owns 60% of General Motors, all of Fanny Mae and
Freddie Mac plus they took over 100% of the student loan program recently! There
are many more jobs projected and those who start the process early will have a
better chance of success.
