[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who just trained new people, it'd just be a massive, stupid waste.  We hired people because we needed rhem, we just spent a whole lot of money training them and to fire them now would mean we aren't going to get the investment back.  Might as well just set money on fire.[/quote]

How things are done currently is also a massive, stupid waste.

If they streamline many procedures and eliminate some unneeded programs, they can reduce the number of things the agency is tasked with and how many people required to do it.  The posts here assume that you will all be doing the same amount of "stuff" long-term and that's short-sighted.  Private companies eliminate or automate a lot of things the government still does with manpower.  Inefficient.[/quote]
Eh...I'm a former fed now in private sector. I now earn close to 10x what I did as a fed. I know that agencies vary, but my experience is that private sector, at least large corporations, wastes a lot more money. The biggest issue, though, is how much time feds spend on unnecessary reporting to Congress etc. That is inefficient.[/quote]
