Boom: Trump eyes 10% spending cuts, 20% slash of federal workers

20% of the federal workforce is about 600,000 jobs.

At that rate, Trump will need a shitload of the pissant call center jobs he took credit for to make up the difference.
No, just give them a welfare check and food stamps for sitting at home eating twinkies. Cheaper than paying them a salary for doing nothing.
 
Yeah!

So much for "saving jobs.

Trump wants to make sure TENS OF THOUSANDS more Americans are unemployed!


He wants the 'tens of thousands' of employees to actually produce something of value to the economy, not increase our sovereign debt to pay bureaucrat benefits and salaries that are a drag on the productive private economy.

I guess you Marxists don't understand the difference between the productive private economy that produces all the actual income of this economy vs the gubment workers who live off the income or borrows money as a claim against future income the productive private sector creates, eh?

Let's start with those gubment workers that process your tax returns, pave or plow your street, or any of other myriad of services you're ignorant of.

They protect your food and drugs, make sure buildings are safe, your water is safe. The agencies that prosecute fraud by companies like Volkswagen and a myriad of other services to protect the public.

Morons like him don't realize that. Nor the impact of 600,000 jobs.

The 600,000 that leads to 1,000,000 because when people don't have money they don't go to the movies, don't go out to eat, don't get their teeth fixed, buy new cars, real estate values go down, it will get ugly.

What does the Dept of Agriculture do with the rows of buildings that occupy prime urban real estate in DC? Grow wheat?
 
"Boom: Trump eyes 10% spending cuts, 20% slash of federal workers

By Paul Bedard • 1/17/17 9:18 AM

Making good on a promise to slash government, President-elect Trump has asked his incoming team to pursue spending and staffing cuts.
Insiders said that the spending reductions in some departments could go as high as 10 percent and staff cuts to 20 percent, numbers that would rock Washington if he follows through.

At least two so-called "landing teams" in Cabinet agencies have relayed the call for cuts as part of their marching orders to shrink the flab in government.

The cuts would target discretionary spending, not mandated programs such as Medicare or Social Security, the sources said..."

This must be what the Statists, (most Liberal/Progressive/Marxist/Fascists are Statists), are all freaked out about.

We've seen this before. It was called the Grace Commission.

The Commission's report, also known as The President's Private Sector Survey On Cost Control was handed over to Congress.

And then nothing happened very slowly.
 
Yeah!

i was hoping for more like hundreds of thousands and millions, but, they are the best and brightest; the most valuable people in the land [us gov. double paid employees]. they will easily be the new business owners and most highly enlightened, desired innovators of real world production. what the hell are they doing wasting their talent in us gov inc,

You can cut the shit out of that department as far as I'm concerned. The contractors for the Pentagon, too.

However, Ag does a lot more than what you just described. You just speak from ignorance about most things.
 
Don't care for the safety of your drugs, food, water and air much, do you, moron?

Those 600,000 jobs can be in areas that involve social welfare programs. It's a two for one. Do away with the programs and those working in those areas go with it.
A double savings.
