    Good luck hiring anyone competent if you can’t get them back. The only reason most people take on government work is for the stability and how’s that looking now? Most educated workers can earn a lot more in the private sector 💀

      Isn’t that the point? They want people to work in the private sector instead.

      It doesn’t matter that it will probably cost the government loads more to contract skilled workers from the private sector when the need inevitably arises. Long-term consequences don’t even occur in the minds of those currently in charge.

      Then with a new middle man, the private business owners’ pockets get lined from all the work these people would’ve done anyway. In the end, isn’t that what’s really important in life? Not working to support the good of your own country, but rather, working to make the rich even richer? So fulfilling.

        The point is to remove dissent in the government so that it’s easier to make it a dictatorship. It has nothing to do with efficiency or whatever the fuck they’re telling people.
