It’s kind of a no-brainer. The government sector has secure jobs and is isolated (for the most part) from the chaos that the private sector is going through.
There is never a recession in Washington DC.
I’m a government worker and I’m not optimistic about this administration and the direction our country is headed...
Not at all surprising, really. Government workers’ jobs are secure and their salaries are rising. Private sector workers jobs are ever at risk and their salaries are shrinking.
Fewer people paying taxes
Numbers of government workers growing
Government worker salaries rising
More and more people depend on the government.
It’s no accident. It’s no coincidence. It’s designed.
The word “sustainability” never enters their minds.
I guess people think that people will magically continue to pay taxes to fund their jobs even after there is no more private sector.
For the most part, government workers get paid more, have guaranteed pensions and medical coverage, and don’t fear getting laid off.
That may be coming to an end, with many municipalities and states on the verge of bankruptcy. But the politicians will screw everyone else first, as long as they possibly can.
And when they no longer can, that means that the whole system has collapsed.
Government workers both giving and getting bribes.
Their own personal finances???
OF COURSE NOT!! They all got a blanket 2% raise on their already bloated salaries.
Myself and 40 million other Soc Sec recipients who have worked for over 50 years got ZERO from the BIG ZERO in the Oval office.
The entire area of Washington DC needs to be flattened and started over. Maybe in Wichita.
