I'd like to see some data to back up that assertion. Obama has promised more government jobs but I don't know if many have actually been delivered.

My customers are product development companies all over the east coast and they certainly have reduced the frequency of layoffs and many are even hiring again.

One company I'm working with now produces power transmission equipment (i.e. necessary for civil infrastructure projects) and they're doing quite well.
