Well, maybe this is the silver lining. Showing that government at all levels across the country is bloated and can be downsized and still function

You guys should realize that there are many govt jobs that are pretty much like regular private sector jobs.

Manual labor, HVAC, nurses, painters, mechanics, grounds, facility maintenance, accounting, architects, engineers, etc.

Also, they make about 60-80% of what the same private sector jobs pay.

But by all means downvote away, everyone.
