A Proposal for State and Local Government Budgets Updated at 1:41 PM
Edited on Sat Feb-20-10 02:03 PM by MineralMan
This is sort of tongue-in-cheek, but not really.
Government Bureaucracy Streamlining Proposal
Eliminate at least one management level in all state and local agencies. Management employees are, generally, the least productive of all government employees, and have the highest salaries. Most government bureaucracies are run entirely by the people who actually do the work of that agency.
BLAH, BLAH, BLAH
Thank you for your attention. Your comments are welcome.

He is proposing to reduce the size of government?

In this State, that would mean that most State agencies would have no on-site supervision at all, but instead the first-level supervisor would be responsible for a region rather than a location. Our State government is pretty minimally staffed and now what anyone would call overpaid, most places. I think they do a tolerably-sound job of managing it now.

I read a job ad for FDIC managers in Dallas, 11 positions paying up to $199,000. There were dozens of other cities too and thousands of FDIC jobs. None of these should be filled, they should be eliminated. Its the federal government that really needs more than a trim. I guess states like CA and such need it too.

Only the government closer to the people. Apparently, the FEDERAL government is just dandy the way it is.

Disclaimer, I work for the Feds and I am well worth what they pay me. However, for about every job you could compare, the Fed pay scale is indeed much higher than what my State pays for similar positions. Not sure what the State benefit package is like here, but I'm pretty sure it is nothing like the gold-plated systems the NPRK or NPRNJ.
