  Except the graph and statistics I produced accord with real-life experience and is not just theory.
  
  Some people do have a habit of just ignoring the evidence that does not fit their world view, even a so called 'top' economist, David Blanchflower, did just that in a presentation I attended. When challenged he had no answer.
  
  The simple facts of life are that if you burden the private sector with high levels of public sector spending something has to 'give'. Take a top athlete and pile weights onto him, the more you pile on the slower he will go. remember ultimately all the taxes that pay for the public sector and the secondary public sector are paid by the private sector. (The secondary public sector being that part of a nominally private business that depends on public sector cash). Taxes paid by those directly or indirectly employed by the public sector being just recyled money.
