[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m so sorry, it’s been a shock of a week. And it won’t just be feds. With the new situation at NiH, it will spread to academia, universities, etc and many more people will lose their jobs. A recession is ahead. Plan now for how to get through the next few years. What a mess. [/quote] The Federal workforce is around one percent of the economy, and firing one percent of them doesn't move the needle at all. An economist could argue that this will be good for the economy--freeing up skilled workers to work on more productive things in the private sector (see, for example, Argentina). [/quote] The work the federal government do influence the economy too. No one to do the job will affect the economy.[/quote]
