Many make more than $80K, you know that. I’m sure the argument is that DC cost of living is high, but well, not for long!
Many private sector people make more than $80k too. What's your point?
Yes but they must produce in order to keep their jobs. They don’t have some lifetime entitlement to employment. See how that’s different?
There's no federal employee with a lifetime entitlement to employment. They also have to produce to keep their jobs. The only difference is that federal employee's have some limited protections against arbitrary firing for political reasons that don't relate to their performance.

Leavitt already waved a stack of blank papers in the air at the press conference. That's all I need.
Receipts baby, they’re bringing the receipts!

That’s a ton of money! Especially for people who mostly work from home. Eliminating tens of thousands of positions at $80K a pop is a huge savings. You Feds really are out of touch. That is a huge amount of money for the average American in flyover country. Just wow.
Just wow that you don't think occupation, education, regional cost of living, and affordability of child care have anything to do with these stats.
I was a fed in the 90s. I reached GS-13 by late 20s. I left government service in part because I couldn't afford a house in the town where I lived along the metro line.
People who resent feds don't want anyone to have a better life than their own. They don't think feds are deserving, mostly because of anti-government beliefs. We know!
Everything plays badly in flyover country because the media thrives on outrage. That's not new either.
Also consider that premium undergrads just out of school are in that same $80K-$100K wage range. With very little work experience.

I think the majority of Trump voters from Flyover Country do not make $80K and we be very happy to see those positions go. Again, so many on here are clueless about life in the rest of the country. A Trump voter living in a trailer in Arizona definitely does not make $80K. Do you not get that?
