[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does the GOP hate government workers so much? They’re paid less than private industry and no raise this year but an increase in healthcare premiums. I don’t understand where the deep loathing comes from? [/quote] My theory is that government workers are a threat to the billionaires who want to keep their employees powerless. Government workers generally have great benefits and strong job protections. If you want disempowered workers, it’s not good to have a different employment model that might get people asking “hey, why can’t we have what they have?” Also, sometimes the government stops business people from doing exactly what they what. And to the extent that some government services are worth keeping, there’s money to be made in providing the same services but for profit as contractors. [/quote]
