To the contrary. Hiring contractors for non-governmental duties allows for greater flexibility in staffing, accompanied by lower benefits costs. [/quote]

+1 Fewer longtime federal workers with golden parachutes.[/quote]

You guys are morons. You’ve bought into a massive lie. Federal workers don’t have golden parachutes or great retirement.[/quote]

Compared to the average American worker? Yes, they do. [/quote]

They have 401k like most average workers. In the past they had pensions but they did away with pensions.

You know, American workers should unionize instead of destroying the government. Unions were created to improve worker benefits and conditions. Corporations and the GOP have demonized unions, which is why nothing improves for workers. Corporations DGAF about its employees. They care about profits.[/quote]

It's like people think federal workers get pensions like it's 1950. Those were done away with decades ago, in the 1990s, and now there is an extremely small relic of a pension and the rest replaced with 401ks like everyone else.

Yes, there are retired feds out there who still get a full pension, but working feds? Only if they've been there 40 years.

Stop being mad at feds and starting being mad at all the corporations and billionaires raking in cash while trying to cut your measley social security. [/quote]

Maybe we can talk about the golden parachute the military gets. [/quote]
