When President-elect Donald Trump said Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy would recommend major cuts to the federal government in his administration, many public employees knew that their jobs could be on the line.
Don’t like him and not sure how well this is gonna work out BUT there are too many useless people in government jobs in a lot of countries and with their work ethic they often couldn’t hold jobs in the more competitive free market so I agree with the core principle of what they want to do, but I am sure the approach will be total ass.
The problems in government are structural and systematic, not individual. The bureaucracy was built into what it is through the accumulation of regulations, poorly implemented policies and agendas, as well as plain mismanagement. Likewise, when the cost of a failed project is a political shitstorm and a parliamentary enquiry, and beyond that you are expected to be entirely accountable and transparent, you need to be risk averse.
You can’t just fix these issues by proclaiming to fire everyone. You need to fix structural and leadership problems.
Yes, there is a shit ton of dead weight in the government contractor sector, just soaking up that delicious tax money for minimal effort. But I have a feeling these aren’t the employees being targeted right now.
That’d be cutting federal contracts. I read the headline as dealing with people employed directly by the federal government, not indirectly hired through private companies.
I am you that it’d be a much better way to cut fat from the budget.
