These and other cutbacks are the normal thing to do hoping you do not have to file bankruptcy.
AGREE!!! Cancel every damned one. Most of them are Retired O-6s, GOs, GS-15s AND SESs.
The bastards retire, sit out a year and come back as a consultant AND the STUPID government employees listen to every word they say. This is the worst example of influence peddling I have ever seen.
