    Yes, there is a shit ton of dead weight in the government contractor sector, just soaking up that delicious tax money for minimal effort. But I have a feeling these aren’t the employees being targeted right now.

      That’d be cutting federal contracts. I read the headline as dealing with people employed directly by the federal government, not indirectly hired through private companies.

      I am you that it’d be a much better way to cut fat from the budget.
