I still don't get how these hypocritical politicians keep talking about wanting to improve the economy and get more people working, but yet they are the ones cutting all the workers and laying off all the lower-level people.

It will always be this way. Cut the lowest first. They could cut up at the top and save more plus more people at lower levels would still have jobs. Less depending on handouts this way in return it would fix 2 things save payroll and less on welfare. If they had there jobs they wouldn't have to collect unemployment. Seems like the state pays for them either way at least one way they would be working.
