When I looked it was actually somewhere between 4% and 8%. Cutting federal employees is just stupid and spiteful. It accomplishes nothing but fucking the country up and tanking the economy.
But then you can complain that government doesn't work then cut more later. These people are all about starving the beast then bitching about how a private solution will "fix" everything.
And people need to understand the danger there because there is a very big difference between a government employee and a private sector employee.
A public employee's main goal is to provide for the functioning of the country, a private sector employee's main goal is to maximize profit. There is a big difference in outcomes because of that.
It’s the classic conservative mantra “government doesn’t work and is inefficient, elect me and I’ll prove it.” And then sell it to their donors who will charge 3x for the same service and pocket the difference while everyone else suffers.
Don't forget, you use nationalism to make you seem more "patriotic" while doing nothing to actually support the people you claim you do. claim things you voted against that helped your constituents was actually your doing, and claim the other side are demon worshipers because they tolerate the existence of religions that come from people who's skin color is darker than olive.
