Yes he is up to 25% maybe slighty more than a 25% something like 28% but regardless, Obama with Obamacare will take us to 33 or 34% of GDP. At that time we are freakin' Sweden, If I wanted their neuvo socialism, I would have moved their already.
All the downsizing I have been through in my life in the private sector and observed, were in the neighborhood of 30 to 40% in personnel to start, as well as a total redesign of process flow, work flow, and Flo the Waitress while they were at it. Nothing was sacred. Kaizen, Taugchi etc were all used to make it smarter, faster, quicker at less cost.
It is time for Fedzilla to go through this and all the piddle-farting in the world by both sides can't stop it, it has got to occur and not soon enough for me...
“Nothing was sacred. Kaizen, Taugchi etc were all used to make it smarter, faster, quicker at less cost.”
I wish those things would make it smarter where I work. All of those are just the latest buzzwords to get some moron promoted to the point of the Dilbert Principle. It’s definitely not what you know, but knowing whose butt to kiss and for how long where I work. I just can’t seem to lower my standards enough to fall in line with the idiocy that replaces common sense and intelligence where I work.
I guess this is a reflection of society as a whole and government in its current and many forms (the people get what they elect and expect out of others).
