The first place to start with this is the hypocrisy. This from the administration that Fired a Department of Energy Employee for telling the truth to Congess after which the DOE strengthened protections for scientists

But it goes on. Forgetting about professional competence in a science and technology agency responsible for nuclear weapons, it hypes "diversity and inclusiveness"

It claims credit for supplying the country with reliable energy, something done by the commercial utility industry.

And this elitist policy wonk with degrees in political science takes credit for supplying science and technology to the country, which she certainly doesn't, but decides that "assembling and distmantling nuclear weapons is an "unglamorour job." http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3513108/posts

It all just says “blah blah blah” to me.

I’ll respect them. I want them all fired, but i’ll respect them if it makes them happy

There’s a price to pay for believing lies.

The first two departments that should be eliminated both have the same initials: DOE.

Anyone who thinks the Federal Government is not at least TWICE the size it should be is insane, pure and simple.

President Trump is being quite gentle when he only proposes a 20% cut.

judge them on ideology rather than merit.

That's the funniest thing I've heard all week.

Neither the DOEnergy nor NASA need to be working on proving CAGW. Not one dime.

I have mainly been in the private sector. I have always known that my employment is at the whim of the owners. I have seen layoffs happen just to raise stock prices prior to a merger, or sometimes “just because” an Exec read something in a magazine and decided to try it.

I worked for a state one summer. It was an eye opening experience. I got chewed out for doing my job well and ahead of schedule.

Sorry. The real world hurts.

Remember that old “Look for the Union label” commercial jingle? Time to rewrite it as “Look out for the DC bubble.”

They have it exactly backwards. The Federal employees should respect the taxpayers who pay their salaries.

We don’t need hundreds of porn watchers, those who don’t show up for months or years but still get paid, and the ideologues who work in the IRS and persecute conservatives. We want Pres. Trump to drain that swamp.

These people lack 20-20 vision.

1. 20 - number of trillions of dollars that the federal government owes as the “National Debt” and its now way over 100% of GDP - https://www.treasurydirect.gov/NP/debt/current

2. 20 - percentage ceiling of GDP - the historical limit that has never been breached on federal revenues - https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FYFRGDA188S

Here is another “20” stat. It seems like federal outlays haven’t gone below 20% since Obama became President - https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FYONGDA188S

Here is another stat. On top of outlays the federal government has to spend money on interest because our politicians the past 2+ decades have refused to balanace the budget.
https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/FYOIGDA188S

Just imagine what would happen if interest rates went back to normal or up to where they were in the 1980’s.

Ah, no.

Federal bureaucrats, in general, are subhuman excrement. The ones working at regulatory agencies are a plague on the nation, a greater threat to liberty of Americans than the Saudis, China, Iran, NK combined.

Recently, I believe that the number of those working in government surpassed those working in manufacturing. Terrible.
