This will affect private sector employees as well. I hope everyone realizes that the race to the bottom is going to affect them as well.

Yeah but MAGA jobs are not educated professionals so their market will be less swamped.

You must recognize the irony that the reason you lost the election is BS opinions like this one.

And you need to realize that even though you may have a great job, you would not have won except that people with less great jobs decided to vote against their own best interests (what's beneficial for you is not what would be good for them) and vote for your candidate

Or you could be a troll

Either way your side lost because you just can’t stop trash talking people you don’t know simply because of who they voted for. And then you double down and do it again.

That you can't see the irony in what you wrote here is astounding.

NP and I don't see the irony. The beauty of government jobs is that the mission can be helping people. It doesn't have to be profit. There are hundreds of thousands of professionals who have built specialized careers around helping people, and now their entire field is gone. I see no irony in that.

Dp. Your response makes me slide towards agreeing with the orange’s goal (still not the process).

A government’s job should be to support our society so it can become a better functioning society, eventually resulting in a better economic position. Not just ‘helping people.’ Helping people to what end that will benefit society as a whole?

That’s what the mission should be.

Sure, who cares about food safety, curing cancer, feeding hungry kids, air traffic safety, consumer protection, hurricane detection, stopping the spread of bird flu, and all that kind of useless stuff. If the private sector ain't interested, it must be no good. Food companies can regulate themselves and bird flu - well, if we don't monitor it, it's not really happening, amirite?

+1

The services provided by a (reasonably) well functioning government are what keep society safe and civil.

Without these services you end up with a country like so many of the MAGAts fear and hate - companies selling unsafe products, mobs retaliating against these companies, huge stratifications among the wealthy, who live in gated, armed communities, and the poor masses.

I can only guess that people who don’t realize government services are necessary to be a “developed” nation haven’t traveled much and/or lack any curiosity or perspective.

But, many, many college-educated suburbanites voted for him. Their quality of life will substantially decline going forward, regardless if they work in the private sector, not to mention all of the police officers, lower-level medical personnel, and even government workers who voted for him.

Yes, you’re right. You’re absolutely right! All these things CAN and SHOULD be privatized.

You must be smoking something good or you are just dumb

What you wrote makes no sense at all

*1 huh?

Thank you for your invitation to take the bait. Regretfully, I must decline

Please explain the business model for that list? Who are the paying customers? So some cities who can’t afford to subscribe will get to have jump scare hurricanes?

I think they are very useful. It would also be nice to no longer deal with nitwits as realtors, mortgage brokers, financial advisors, general managers etc. What a wonderful world where we get some intelligent people in these relatively well paid private sector jobs.

Those businesses demand results or no pay. FEDs will be in a psychiatric state of paralysis

Um, no. Quit with the right wing narrative. I have no problems getting results.

Uh huh…work weekends and evenings … phone is always on… no results no pay. Many years far less money that the previous year. FEDs are good at that stuff.

If the FEDs offered to cut their pay 40 percent and only get raises if the budget is balanced like what happens in the private sector all the time I’m sure Trump would totally consider it. They should offer this and potentially save the jobs.

I’ve been looking since Jan 20 and not even RIF yet
