[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BLS and other data agencies were not spared, and a lot of people are worried about the quality of analysis going forward. Earlier this year BLS said it would stop collecting a few kinds of data and instead infer it, which has implications for accuracy. [/quote] So Statisticians and economists were fired as well?[/quote] My impression of this admin is that research and analysis is not governmental work — if it was actually valuable, someone would be paying someone to do the research. It doesn’t produce any concrete widget they can evaluate nor perform a service for a constituent, so it is considered worthless. This applies across all agencies, look how they are eliminating analysis and research from DOD FFRDCs. Gov shod DO things, not compile piles of reports that maybe no one looks at or values (because they aren’t willing to pay for them, right) — that’s the approach. [/quote]
