[quote:Anonymous Coward 3694399:MV8yMTQ2Mzg5XzM2MjY0NTIxX0VGNERFQjc0] [quote:Anonymous Coward 3987337:MV8yMTQ2Mzg5XzM2MjU5MDE0XzcwQjJDREU=] But but but. Government doesn't create jobs. You should be happy for spending cuts. These spending cuts will allow the private sector to create more jobs. At least that's what republicans have been telling us. [/quote] I don't consider taking my tax dollars and giving it to someone in the DoD to spy on me a job. These 800,000 people should not have had these jobs in the 1st place. So no the government cannot possibly create jobs when they use tax dollars that have been given to them to fund these so called jobs. If the money was with the people where it should be every person on the federal tit could get a real job and have a real employer. Just like the liberals in Dakota were somehow able to talk the people of Dakota into keeping their property tax. All they had to say was that big brother uses the property tax to build roads, schools etc. and that they need his help to continue to have these projects completed. Meanwhile the truth is if those people in Dakota took the funds they saved from no more property tax and put it in to a newly created Dakota bank/community funds that could give loans to new businesses or for new projects they could have built up their own communities without the government tit in their mouths. When will people realize we can do it ourselves and we could do a better job without these greedy traitors skimming off the top and bankrupting every government funded program? [/quote]

Defense Secretary Leon Panetta had the unenviable job today of informing hundreds of thousands of his civilian employees that they could be furloughed if the sequester takes effect on March 1.
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta had the unenviable job today of informing hundreds of thousands of his civilian employees that they could be furloughed if the sequester takes effect on March 1.
In a letter to the entire DoD workforce, Panetta warned that “should sequestration occur and continue for a substantial period, DoD will be forced to place the vast majority of its civilian workforce on administrative furlough.”
This could impact as many as 800,000 civilian employees, which Panetta argued “will result in a serious erosion of readiness across the force.”
