airport security is one funny thing.  but ballgame security is yet another entirely.. my father makes sure to unleash a sarcastic comment or two during the Citi Field Patdown and, the most amazing thing is, these guys honestly and truly believe they are protecting the country (and therefore according to doctrine all freedom, liberty, and Christ) from certain ruin. what conclusions to draw from this, consider your own domain.

Government workers produce a lot. The TSA for example, deters a lot of people who otherwise would try to cause harm on airplanes, thus making people feel safer to fly. This also lowers the cost of air travel.

Airport security is such a fraud, they pick on children and blue haired old ladies.

What is it that you do? It sounds like you're completely independent of federal regulations?

The Republicans will cheer this! Fewer government employees means less so-shul-ism and it's a sting to the democRAT party.

Correct. Smiley

I'm cheering, 70% of government jobs should be cut.

And when you lose your job in the resulting economic collapse and then end up not being able to find work because of the vast number of more qualified workers suddenly competing for jobs... will you be glad then?

It's easy to cut 70% of government jobs sitting in your living room recliner and not thinking about the potential consequences.

What's one bad thing about the government getting smaller? Seriously?

Decline in GDP and employment during a recession is a bad thing.
