Boom: Trump eyes 10% spending cuts, 20% slash of federal workers

[AnCap'n_Murica]

I'm left wondering why God Emperor would have to fire so many parasitic bureaucrats, when so many (anonymously) claimed that they'd quit if he got elected?

"Insiders said that the spending reductions in some departments could go as high as 10 percent and staff cuts to 20 percent, numbers that would rock Washington if he follows through.

At least two so-called "landing teams" in Cabinet agencies have relayed the call for cuts as part of their marching orders to shrink the flab in government.

The cuts would target discretionary spending, not mandated programs such as Medicare or Social Security, the sources said."

'The Circumcision Principle' states ... there is NOTHING you can't take 10% off the top of.

Go for it.

Will he also cut the 3.7 million contract workers employed by the gummint...or will he just privatise federal work and claim that he has reduced the workforce?

All working people need to take home less as they have been consistently over the past half century regardless of personalities and political party in power. But you know, Don's been eyeing a wall he thinks Mexico will pay for too, so we'll see.

The federal government is too damn big, too many people doing the same job. Cut the fuck out of it Trump!

 

[CrusaderFrank]

He's deStarkifing the Federal government, he's actually fucking doing it!!

He may be the greatest President ever and the most effective since Coolidge

Yeah, ya never see that in corporate institutions, like the medical industry for example. All them deadbeats running up costs on the back of the people.

Well except for this bit, we can't have anyadis:

Coolidge spoke in favor of the civil rights of African-Americans, saying in his first State of the Union address that their rights were "just as sacred as those of any other citizen" under the U.S. Constitution and that it was a "public and a private duty to protect those rights."[128][129] He appointed no known members of the Ku Klux Klan to office; indeed, the Klan lost most of its influence during his term.[130] His administration commissioned studies to improve programs for Native Americans.

Coolidge was a billion times greater than FDR

He won't get a 20% cut of federal workers if he follows through with his plans for massive increases in the military.

Get rid of a fifth of Federal workers, trade agreements, threaten manufacturing, insult our trading partners and then see what a sparkling economy you end up with.

Lets take this for a ride....

United States federal civil service - Wikipedia

You have 1.593 million workers under the executive branch

So that is 159,000 workers to get rid of....
You have 1.01million working in Defense, VA and Homeland security... I don't think you are getting rid of them...

So can we have in detail where you are getting your cuts from...
Explain which depts and the services that will be cut to match.
