Elon prepares to doxx all Feds:

I just love this: "This is the number of agency rules created by unelected bureaucrats for each law passed by Congress in 2024."

As if that's a bad thing. Do they not know how administrative agencies work? Namely, that Congress passes high level laws, and administrative agencies, with their specialized, technical expertise, implement? Do they really want Congress wading into all the nitty gritty details? I don't think so - and their business constituents I'm sure would prefer to deal with smart, informed regulators than with Congress folk, who even at their best and brightest, aren't in the weeds the way our public servants are.

But I forget, it's all the swamp. So whatever.

I know right. Like I can cut a bunch of words. “Elon Musk cannot buy or invest in any more companies” is a lot shorter than the new HSR form.

It is not the current salaries that is expensive it is Govt in general pays multiple people to do same job.

My daughter who started kindergarten the nice teacher explained she actually went to kindergarten in same class room she teaches in. She said she keeps in touch the prior kindergarten teacher who recently retired and her own kindergarten teacher she keeps in touch with who had job before the prior kindergarten teacher.

If you do the math taxpayers pay current teacher salary, pension teacher she took over for and pension retirement kindergarten teacher.

They are paying three salaries and three sets medical benefits but only one current teacher.

Crazy way to operate business paying former employees to do nothing

In private sector once you are done that’s that.

They should get rid of all pensions and medical in retirement all new govt employees.

I was 50 when I cracked $100k as a Fed with a PhD. My nephews made more fresh out of college.

You think $80K and $66K are the same?

The $66,000 worker doesn’t get the pension for life and healthcare for life. We get stuck with Obamacare in between jobs.

Not to mention that every regulation goes through a level of review by political appointees, both within the agency and at OMB, before it’s enacted. “Bureaucrats” aren’t creating rules in violation of the president’s wishes. His political appointees are the ones signing off on them.

This is not at all how pensions work. Pensions money comes from an invested fund. The employee and employer both pay into the fund while the person is working, and then the fund (again, invested not a pool of direct tax dollars) pays out later.

And in private sector a job with a pension (yes they exist) works the same way.

I'm not sure if I need to tell you kindergarten teachers aren't federal employees, but just in case - they are not.

How does any CFPB employee have 35+ years with the agency?

Maybe you'd write better if you stayed in Kindergarten.

Feds pay towards their pensions. New feds are paying 4%. Any higher and there is no benefit.
