Cuts Should Start From The Top Down

An article from Calitics.com (go read it) points out another example from the GOP/Republican/Conservative playbook: tearing down government (any government) by vilifying government workers. Think about it - CEOs pulling down $15 million in compensation per year is OK, but government service workers getting by on $40,000 per year is a real problem - something is desperately wrong with this picture.

Republicans are all about chopping up the government and selling off its pieces to the highest--or best-connected--bidder. It's government as potential profit center, not government as public service, for them.
