[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump's OMB (Vought) and OPM are apparently gearing up to push a plan for federal agencies to RIF every federal employee who isn't excepted from shutdown furlough and who isn't explicitly covered by H.R.1 (which didn't fund most agencies, and which is why we are steamrolling toward a shutdown).  What this means is that over 92% of federal employees will be fired if the shutdown lasts longer than 60 days.

Tell me, what would you think if a new CEO took over your own company and a few months in fired 92% of everyone there, with minimal regard to what the function of the fired people actually was?  How do you think that company would survive?  It wouldn't.  You'd lose most of your technical expertise, organizational and institutional knowledge and history, relationships with customers and other organizations, everything would collapse and the company would implode.  Anyone who thinks it would be a "good thing" is completely clueless about how things work.[/quote]
