[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, it sucks, but it’s just putting Federal workers on a level footing with the vast majority of Americans. Why should Feds have more job security than the rest of us? Maybe it’s time for all Americans to have better workers rights, but I don’t think Feds should be some protected class. If eliminating Federal jobs leads to better efficiencies and cost savings for taxpayers, then so be it. [/quote]

I know people tend to think myopically so it seems like all this so doing is making feds the same as everyone else!

Except there are actually greater reasons than any particular federal employee. All civilized countries have civil service protections to avoid the installation of loyalists. There is a reason we take an oath to the constitution not the President. We ensure continuity of government, not blind leadership to an authoritarian regime and corruption. Please read up on countries where the federal workforce has been purged and notice that the majority of developed countries have laws to ensure a strong government workforce.
