This should be a huge priority for the Trump administration. As someone who's dealt with it, I can confirm that it's nearly impossible to fire lazy and nonproductive employees.
And remember, this requires legislative action which means Congress must act. Therein lies the problem. The SIEU represents most government employees and will fight tooth and nail to keep things the way they are. Democrats dare not turn their back on this huge union and I doubt a lot of Republicans are any different.
Anyone familiar with the internal operations of government knows that 30% is a conservative figure for the number of federal employees who do nothing. Allowing a tough, business-oriented president like Trump to dramatically reduce the size of the federal government would also reduce the cost of government – and all this could be done expeditiously.
(I personally think it's a much higher percentage. And those who do work do so in order to improve their chances for promotion.)
