I have met the "regular" admin people in DC with their lifetime benefits, retirement, and never having to look for another job entitled attitudes. The higher up they go, the more entitled they get. One lady, who proudly tells her story of actually helping the Clinton Foundation work with the state department to make emergency temporary immigration arrangements to evac "children and families" from Haiti (i shit u not!), said that now that she's a director, she has other people to do the work and she's earned the right to be on vacation in office until she retired. This was at a dinner hosted by her friend who had just been laid off, attended by me, also recently laid off. unmitigated gall! Civil "servants" my ass. They're around every military base, federal building, federally funded job. Re-employing Washington D.C. is just a start. You have to drain the tributaries , too!

THAT being said I also met members of Heritage foundation years before, and a dinner conversation included they were the source of then candidate Mitt Romney's insurance plan in Massachusetts. They lost me at MR.

" in part by firing as many as 50,000 federal workers."

That's a decent start but they need to get rid of a LOT more. Even those who aren't actually #DeepState are mostly deadwood and need to be replaced.
