Mitt Romney has a great idea to help the economy and unemployment should he end up President in 2013: fire a whole crapload of government employees.
Multimillionaire Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney (R) told employees at a steel fabrication plant on Monday that government employees “are making a lot more money than we are.”
Who's this "we" you speak of, Daddy Warbucks?
Wearing his best plaid work shirt and Tommy Bahama blue jeans, the candidate explained to workers at Giese Manufacturing that he would slash the number of federal employees if elected.
“We have to cut back on the scale of the federal government,” Romney declared. “And for me that will start by reducing federal employees by 10 percent. You do that through attrition.”
“And then something else that is just as important, and that’s to make sure the people who work for government don’t get better pay and better benefits than people that work in the private sector.”
Yes let's fire a bunch of people and cut their salaries. This will make people want to work for the government. PS, Government employees like Congresspeople and Presidents? Free health care. You ever notice how Republicans are always saying "pull yourself up by your bootstraps, it's your responsibility" and then say "We must pull those other people down to your level!" at the same time?
It's like they enjoy people being poor and out of work. It makes us globally competitive, you see.
