What a farce....They could get rid of 10% of these employees and no one would notice.

Those employees and their families will notice being gotten rid of.

The article states that 40% of the work force are veterans.

Incredibly sad that the entire federal work force has been so demonized and dehumanized. Let them eat cake?

"What a farce....They could get rid of 10% of these employees and no one would notice." Why do I suspect you have absolutely no data or real information to back up that claim? What are you: a low-information voter? TC

Pointing out that a certain number of these employees is BS.

Certainly they are, but they are no worse off than others facing sequestration furloughs.

What I find hard to believe is that Congressional pay will be cut and a billionaire like Nancy Pelosi thinks that is unfair.These people have no conscience.

Mom worked for Navy at Philly ship yard. NO ONE was fired no matter how little work was done.

I see you're still piling on with the "I'm pissed at the world" words of "wisdom".

I am sure the Veteran’s will thank you for your heartless statement. Sometimes I wonder about some of you and your anti-veteran attitude. Sad!

Maybe more than 10%. Only problem, the non-productive brown-nosers will be the last to leave. Gubmit SOP and DOD in particular.
