Doge and DoD targeting all the wrong things as expected.</p><p>Sharing as a GS14 in the DoD — Cutting people instead of cutting programs is so stupid. An example. National security technology program that costs $60 million dollars per year to operate. It’s got a program office of 6 govt employees and 30 support contractors. 5/6 government employees will be taking the VERA/VSIP or taking the 2nd fork in the road DRP. Those 5 people leaving saves the govt maybe $500k each year. Meanwhile we still pay $60mil a year for a national security contract to be managed by a single govt employee.And let’s just say that that technology program is operating the core infrastructure of the undersea pipes providing internet connectivity to Taiwan (which it is). So due to lack of programmatic oversight, the fiber pipes get compromised by Chinese adversaries, China then cuts off internet to Taiwan, and the US has to intervene to protect Taiwan from China. We’re now at war because we tried to save $500k/yr by laying off five (5) people. Cut the ineffective programs and the low performers in the government cause we all know that needs to be done. But do it with a scalpel. Not a chainsaw. </p><p>------</p><p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/fednews/comments/1jq6r2i/shrink_the_programs_before_shrinking_the/?utm_source=ifttt" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">reddit.com/r/fednews/comments/</span><span class="invisible">1jq6r2i/shrink_the_programs_before_shrinking_the/?utm_source=ifttt</span></a></p><p>r/fednews is the main subreddit for US Federal government workers.</p><p>This robot is NOT affiliated with r/fednews.
