I?ve been working for the Federal Government for a bit now, have held mid level management positions (self demoted because of the dirty business). When you have multiple departments just within one geographical portion of the agency spending 10?s of thousands of dollars on bullshit at the end of the year, just so congress doesn?t cut their budget for the following year, I have a huge problem with that, and if we can get some form of checks and balances, I?m all for it.

Having worked for the state, i agree. They find more ways to waste time and $$ doing what we'd consider simple task.

The average salary for federal employees is $100k according to the OPM.

Layoff 20%, save $50B per year.

Doesn't make a big dent in the $2T deficit, but it's a start.
As i've said before. If their non-essential employees, they're also better off elsewhere.
