Make no mistake:
Gov workers are the most selfish self-righteous bastards there is when it comes to their salary /benefits.
They will stop at nothing and demand everyone else pay their six-figure retirement.
Trump should take all federal funded gov pensions and roll them into the “social security trust fund”.
And put them all on Obamacare “bronze” level.
They will stop at nothing and demand everyone else pay their six-figure retirement.
Oh, absolutely. Every one of them thinks he or she "sacrificed for the public good" while they were raking in above-market compensation, layoff-proof, unfireable, for twenty or thirty years.
In Romania, the head Government Worker was willing to fire machine guns into a crowd of tens of thousands of his citizens rather than give up power.
Any one of them will do exactly the same.
