FURLOUGH OF FEDERAL WORKERS WOULD REDUCE EMPLOYEE LEVELS TO PRE-OBAMA LEVELS

WASH POST:
Government shutdown: Potential furloughs for 800k federal workers...

Failure to reach a budget deal would mean furloughing about 800,000 federal employees nationwide — many of whom are expected to surrender their BlackBerries, according to senior administration officials familiar with shutdown planning.
ACTUALLY, THERE WOULD STILL BE MORE FED WORKERS DURING A "SHUTDOWN" THAN BEFORE OBAMA WAS INAUGURATED.

SAD TRUTH:

From 1981 through 2008, the civilian work force remained at about 1.1 million to 1.2 million, with a low of 1.07 million in 1986 and a high of more than 1.2 million in 1993 and in 2008.

In 2009, the number jumped to 1.28 million.

Including both the civilian and defense sectors, the federal government will employ 2.15 million people in 2010 and 2.11 million in 2011, excluding Postal Service workers.

WE COULD PROBABLY DO JUST FINE WITHOUT THESE 800,000 FOLKS ON THE PUBLIC TEAT ER UM I MEAN PAYROLL.
