You seem lie a really angry count. I saw it for many years.

I actually agree
It won't happen unless the ridiculous practice of cutting their budgets the following fiscal year, if they don't completely spend their current one.

So, I am clear, you are saying we should reward them, more than their already nice benefits, for doing their job correctly and in a non-wasteful way?
Reduce base pay across the board and increase performance/efficiency bonuses.

No. It's not.
The government is staffed by people. People are motivated by money. Offer incentives, and there would absolutely less waste.
As it stands, you have created a system whose goal is to spend every single penny allotted to it.
What part of public service escapes this place?
Government work is meant to be of public service, not an incentive.
I didnt create shite. There shouldn't be incentives for going under budget, rather they should be penalized and inspected for budget accuracy.

No. You would put the workers in competition with the people they should be serving, the taxpayers.

They are getting paid a salary plus benefits to do their job - well. Why should they get a bonus???

No saying they should but bonuses incentivize people. Can't dispute that.

Yep.
I'm fine with cutting base pay in exchange for my superior idea

They don't give a shite because the system rewards seniority, not merit.
Absolutely true. Pay is based off of time of employment, not how valuable or worthy a person is.
Those who are worth a shite usually don't stick around because they get shite pay even when out performing others.

There would be no more buying 300 flat screen TVs at the end of the fiscal year to post the menu for the chow hall.

No. Let's just fire these shitbags and stop allowing tax funded government monopolies on services through the extortion (theft) of exorbitant taxes.
Taxation is theft, the government sucks. Why in the fricking frick would we do something like this, when it wasn't their money to begin with?
Your idea seems to be "make the government more like the market". Ok, ill one up you. Eliminate the state and let the market do it. Problem solved.

We can fire the ones in our states just not the ones in the other 49.

I'm down, if the actual value of service is what they have to work with but before that lots of shite needs slashing.

I think every member of congress should be ineligible to run for another term if the government has run a deficit during their previous term.

How about they live in the real world and get shite canned when they go in red?
