[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's interesting to see the families that live large on by sucking the Fed's titties in normal times squirming now (like the rest of the US has been for the past ~5 years).

Not good, not bad, not schadenfreunde, just ... interesting.

Thinking of all the NoVa families with one spouse civilian DoD and the other spouse a "defense contractor."   When the rest of America was pasting their bumpers back on their rickety cars back in 2009, what about you?[/quote]

Asshole. I don't know one fed who was delighting in the layoffs of their private sector friends and families.  Asshole.[/quote]

Not PP but tired of federal employees being pawns in the political chess game of shutdowns and deficit fights. And I really don't see fed employees as being overpaid. My husband takes a paycut being a fed and I did too. [/quote]

You didn't take a paycut, you are being paid market rate for your particular position.  Want more money, go become a contractor.  There are pro's and con's to each but it really isn't a paycut as if you took less money to go into being a fed, it was a personal choice.

It isn't just federal employees who are impacted.  It will be contractors, all the support staff that go along with the feds, and all the service industry/child care and other industries will also be impacted.  There does need to be cuts, but there has to be better ways to get rid of the excess spending.[/quote]
