35 percent quitting? I’d call that a good start.
7 of nation’s 10 richest counties are next to DC. Lots of six figure salaries for doing not much.
35 % to Quit. Saves time to fire around 40 % more of these worthless leechs.
Yeah, a voluntary 1/3 RIF? Look, you don’t have to keep selling me on Trump, I’m already going to vote for him.
Most federal employees do not work in Washington. Only those at GS 11 or higher and 15-20 yrs experience on the job make six figures.
Most of that wealth in those counties comes from private employment which works with, for or against the government such as lobbyists and special interest lawyers.
Also it is rare to have a privately employed person leave private practice and enter the federal workforce except at the very highest levels. It is common for those working for the government to leave for private practice. This indicates that the real money is outside of federal employment.
The primary benefit to federal employees is job security not income. At the very highest levels the pay is trivial compared to the highest levels in private employment. Compare the president’s salary to that of the heads of major corporations. You are talking 10 to 100 to one or more.
