““a substantial increase in the use of unaccountable private contractors and a much higher cost of providing services,””
I love this line. There is nothing more unaccountable than a federal employee. Just look at Treasury employees....it’s an established fact that you can get prostitutes on taxpayers dime, ignore your duties to protect the President of the United States, and then lie about it and your punishment is a full retirement.
To the extent that private contractors have a “much higher cost of providing services” it is an incompetent federal employee that is the cause.
If a private contractor is “unaccountable” whose fault is that? A federal employee who is neither competent at their job, nor inclined to work a full day to become proficient.
The lies, the deceit, the incompetence never ends. The only way to reduce the liars in government is to make sure there are numerically fewer - hopefully drastically so - federal employees.

I agree with you but highly doubt Ryan's ability to make it happen.
The Washingtonians from both parties have no intention of reducing the size of government or the Federal work force and will conspire to stop it from happening by whatever means necessary.
Notice also how Ryan doesn't talk about eliminating the IRS, or any other Department wholesale and goes for the weak "attrition" method that will never play out.
This is just talk from another DC politician, DC will never reform itself.
