Just take one moment and place yourself in a federal employees position...they have gauranteed income/insurance/pension for their WHOLE life...do not have to produce a single thing except filing paperwork and if they feel like it answer a phone . They know before hand whats coming down the pipe and can implement it if its in their best interest , if not slow mode and a bevy of excuses....these are the rats that are unionized and undermining our republic . Fauci being the biggest example along with every other bitch or bastard that are godless self-serving types...WHY would they allow anything to interupt the gravy train ?
This is why I don’t agree with term limits for our elected officials. With your congressman, at least you have some choice. You know who to call
Did anyone ever subject the above permanent bureaucrats to an election? To regular scrutiny? These people ARE the deep state
Put term limits on upper level bureaucrats and government programs instead.
Freedom. Some must want it. That overrides all.
I can promise you there are many in the DOD civil service (not leadership) that are ardently patriots. My personal experience. Just regular people as worried as you are. Their pensions don’t appear that great IMHO. It appears to be similar to SS. The old pensions are gone. So it’s not like the old days.
In addition average DOD can’t 302 form innocent people. I see more graft in NASA than DOD. Washington DC is a different story. Political to the core. Average solders and civilians are not making bank.
I’m a federal employee and the pensions are pretty much gone now—only those hired before 1994 have them—very few of those left; they are mostly already retired.
There are some good, hardworking federal employees out there, too. A lot of contractors have replaced the gravy train. . .
Come join the federal workforce! One way to improve it is to join it. :)
