When government workers get paid more and have better benefits than private sector workers performing similar jobs, we have a serious problem. I’m shocked he is tackling this.

Frankly, he is tackling all sorts of stuff I’d given up years or decades ago, ever expecting an elected official with any authority to even acknowledge.

This is, frankly, historic. I’m beyond pleased.

When government workers get paid more and have better benefits than private sector workers performing similar jobs...

Again, if you were awoke, you would understand the federal employment is the tip of the deep state iceberg. The overwhelming mass of overpaid people are support service contractors sprawling across the DC metropolitan landscape who have become integral to the deep state operations. Federal salaries are not buying mansions in McClean and Potomac - those are crony capitalist contracting operations. And, it isn't even legitimate defense contractors, though they are here, because the engineering and production operations for those guys sure isn't located anywhere near DC. It's just all supporting the DC bureaucratic churn and skim operation.

I am NOT shocked. This is exactly the kind of things we elected Trump to do.

"THIS" is called government waste.....the most pervasive Bureaucratic made 'industry' in Government today....there are people who make a tidy living off this 'waste'. If anyone can handle this mess, it is POTUS.

a private employee earns .67 cents for every 1.00 a government employee earns.
