[QUOTE="Reggie_Essent, post: 1108643, member: 1186"] Please explain why you think "federal workers" are more equal than private sector workers? How do you know none of them laid off were not slacking or abusing their positions? The country can no afford over 2 million "federal workers" because we're $31 Trillion dollars in debt and in just a year or two the yearly bill for just the interest on that $31 Trillion will exceed the cost of Medicare/Medicaid and Social Security combined. That's no troll, jack. It's absolute fact. You're a businessman, jack. How long would you stay in business if you spent more every year than you brought in? Not long would be my guess. It's the same with countries. For my whole life and yours our country has spent more every year than its brought in. This spending model is simply unsustainable and if it doesn't get fixed, our nation will go bankrupt. Just an hour or so ago in another thread you were worrying about what foreigners think ... what do you think will happen to those foreign countries who's opinions you care so much about if the US goes bankrupt? As to whether these layoffs are "legal" will be adjudicated in the Courts. [/QUOTE]
