Pay Cuts Aren’t Enough: Time to Lay Off Federal Workers

Recently, USA Today highlighted how the salaries of federal employees have skyrocketed in the past five years. According to the article (“More federal workers’ pay tops $150,000”), federal workers earning $150,000 or more in 2005 comprised only 0.4 percent of all federal employees. Today, that number has grown to 3.9 percent. In response to this, Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) is calling for not only a pay freeze, but a ten percent pay cut for federal employees.

Amen! I was one and Lord knows this can be done, even though I am speaking from many years ago, both in Vietnam and CONUS. It's kinda like fishing, but instead of 10% of the fishermen catching 90% of the fish, it's 10% of the employees do 90% of the work.
