<"Earlier this month, the administration announced it wants to let private companies compete for up to half of the 1.8 million federal jobs."

I hope this means that there are going to be fewer gov'mnt workers for the next elections.

Sure would like to know the comparisons between the number of federal workers and private company's employee numbers.

I would suspect that many gov'mnt workers vote DEMOCRAT just to keep their jobs. While private businesses and self-employed vote for FREEDOM FROM TAXATION!!

All government workers are not union and are not all liberals. I know, I am one of them or was until retirement.

In reply to #20, most of the gumbm'nt employees that I know of vote Republican. These guys and gals have families and are of a conservative bent.
