Employees are exempt, exempt non bargaining and bargaining. Exempt has but to work one hour a week to be paid for that entire week .... This sequestration will only effect non bargaining exempt and bargaining . In a right to work state that includes non union and union bargaining employees.
My point is exempt folks will take those Fridays off but will retain full pay and benefits if sequestration kicks in.
Most goobermint hell holes are more chiefs than Indians per se so most of this budget controll act of 2011 is total BS as far as saving money.
Either do it for week at a time so all employees are tasked and savings do occur or do such for a calendar month and be done with the experiment and evaluate the results.
Sequestration should be done by .....
Stopping all foreign aid for 1 calendar year.
Park all non essential vehicles, aircraft etc to save costs on PM and fuel.
Reduce or stop unemployment aka do not feed the bears as it makes them dependent and lazy and DANGEROUS.
Provide hospitalization insurance versus the HMO get to the doctor for every hangnail crap we have now versus pay as ya go for minor illness and injuries.
Drop all federal elected employees and their staff from federal payrolls. Let their own state pay their wages and upkeep.
Stop spending. Do the paperless office crap. I can look on line and in local paper for my polidiots goals. I don’t need the junk mail from my polidiot.
Travel , conferences, seminars, congressional fact finding trips ect.... Stop em for a calendar year.
Polidiots in key positions as to chain of command to the POTUS aka 6 people should be provided security and a hardened vehicle ride to and from work etc .... The rest, let em carry a snub with 5 rounds if they feel they have to piss the people they represent off to the point said people want to kill them..
Defund HLS. Kill TSA and make Airlines pass the cost of their security on to those that fly versus the Feds. Use the former to boost policing in high crime areas.
Tax reduction in all arenas so jobs for restoration of infrastructure for 6 years. More prisons to keep criminals in vs parole pity parties for punks that never grow up.
Stop export of natural resources until Americas strength, fiscal and physical strength is restored .
Goobermint motor pool buying, stop it. .... My vehicles last me with everyday use at least 6-8 years. Use prison vocational education rehabilitation to fix goobermint crap. Be it vehicle or office furniture. Restore prison industries for government civilian officials needs.
No more free meals and working lunches for polidiots, elected or staff....brown bag it like the rest of us. Kill off the royalties.
Flat tax, 16% with 4% each to Feds, state, county and cities. Every dollar “spent” versus every dollar earned is taxed at the 16% rate. Encourages saving and frugal living aka “conservative” and puts burden of IRS on business only. You have a business license, you report what you took in as profit etc .... No loopholes, all ages, no deductions. Every dollar spent, 16% divided up.
Just ideas, thoughts, good or bad my own.... This sequestration is political propaganda positioning for 2014 versus any real reduction and savings.
These socialist bastards ARE RUNNING OUT OF OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY ...... And now they seek to stop working people’s wages, who pay taxes ? Per my take here in the cheap seats this will not bother the little poser beauracrat goobermint employee as much as it will the food chain that is part of that. Construction, suppliers, manufacturers, the community around them etc will be impacted more than the Pelosi / Bohner / Obama waste express.
Only real cure I see is isolationist approach to all but our proven foreign allies we enjoy DOD ports and bases etc with.....
The penny a day doubled every day for 30 days of foreign fiscal support is killing us as well as the welfare handouts to healthy working age men and women.
My rant ....
Stay safe ...
I think you better check your facts again. EVERYONE is effected. The union has no power to stop what is going to happen.
