[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every agency has its own dead-weight, and you could get to 100,000 just getting rid of them. The problem being is that the entire federal system is about keeping those people in their jobs.

If Trump can cut that Gordian knot, then you'd have a cheaper and better federal bureaucracy. [/quote]

My agency is sorely under staffed and many of us are doing 2 people’s jobs. I work extra unpaid hours every week just to get the work done because I had to absorb the duties of someone who left. You sound hateful and ignorant. [/quote]

This! There might have been dead weight decades ago but the agencies I’ve worked at are very lean. Now with boomers retiring, it’s pretty painful.[/quote]
Boomers retiring and Millennials having better options. They don’t need the health insurance because most companies provide that benefit and those that do not have access to the ACA. [/quote]

Most of my team are millennials. But I think because of the decades spent slamming the government, folks don’t want to work for it.[/quote]

Well that and the pension and benefits that were the main draw back before Reagan don’t exist any longer. My father, a retired Fed with a PhD, could have made a ton more money in the private sector, but opted for public for the following reasons, in this order: paying back the country that accepted him as an immigrant, pension and benefits, and job security (no market volatility that his industry and many others are subject to). But don’t worry all you Republican ghouls, he was among the last in his agency with his lifetime pension and benefits, and he won’t be on the books much longer given a recent diagnosis. So in short, f*** off you anti-immigrant ani-gov trolls. He was a better man and cared more for his country and contributed more than any of use wastes of skin  ever wills. [/quote]
