My initial reaction to this post was that this must be satire but it is serious. So I looked through your prior posts and found that you are a federal government employee with time on your hands to be a fairly frequent flyer on
FR during business hours with a distinct agenda on this issue of government work.
Interesting how many “conservatives” turn out to be closet “moderates” or liberals. All you need to do is to criticize or threaten the existence of the particular program or “employment opportunity” the left has bought them off with. This is just how Congress works - conservatives constantly get sold out because of the unprincipled “conservatives” who want to hang on to their bit of unconstitutional or wasteful government spending.
These people are really easy to spot, even when they attempt to sugar coat their responses to make them fit. When asked to respond to hard questions, they often just slither off.
