[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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]

And you sound naive and lack reading comprehension. Every agency has some people who do real important work. Most also have deadweight employees and wasteful make-work programs that add zero real value for taxpayers. [/quote]

So does every single corporation that I have ever worked at. Have you never worked with incompetent do nothings?[/quote]
dp.. but do nothings in the government are paid for by taxpayers, whereas those in the corporate world aren't.[/quote]

Actually, a lot of federal contractors are private employees who are paid with your tax dollars. And many of them make more than the feds with similar jobs. [/quote]

Actually, the contractors who do the actual work will be fine. It’s the useless fat at the top that’s getting cut. [/quote]

My dh's federal job is about half making sure the fed contractors who aren't really invested in the work actually show up and do it. The other half is awarding contracts. [/quote]
