Except we are not in a recession. Oh, and Feds have had their pay frozen for years. My spouse could have chosen to go cash in and work for the private sector about 10 years ago, but became a Fed instead. 10 years later that move has cost us more than $250,000! Industry is where the big money is.

Feds have already been feeling it.
