Trump budget expected to seek historic contraction of federal workforce

  1. Sounds like Trump wants to do an LBO-type play in the public sector. Raise all kinds of debt (which he will have to do for all his proposed programs, military spending increases and tax cuts); cut operations and costs to the bone and walk away claiming victory. Meanwhile, in the private sector equivalent, companies that have been around for generations disappear. Perhaps there's a lesson in there somewhere...

    If you guys weren't happy with government services before, I can only imagine how enamored you will be after.

    This only works if you can find someone to sell the new company to. Perhaps he's courting Russia as a bidder.
