The only way to make government employees more productive is get rid of the fat, the people that are not doing enough to EARN their pay.
To do that, you need the ability to fire people, why do government employees have a union? If employees can’t trust our government to be fair in the treatment of employees, then we have a real serious problem!
Start with a 10% reduction of all government employees across the board and wait 3 months to see where adjustment need to be made and adjust. Hire 5,000 time study experts in the Inspector Generals office to work with department heads on employee productivity efforts.
Hire a top technology firm to review and upgrade all computerized jobs.
Remove the appointment cronyism methods of selecting department heads and hire leaders the same way business selects managers, department heads and supervisors. By knowledge and past administration experience!
Dumping $5 billion into a program like this would return a $150 billion return and the Government would run a lot more efficiently, making the citizens use of government services pleasant and expedient.
