Do some basic math

Lets say a 60K private employee is in the 25% tax bracket

Thats 15K in fed taxes

It takes 4 private taxpayers at 15K eacj just to pay that fed employees salary

Probably takes at least 2 more to offset bennies

Thats at least 6!

So ,,, one million (the number the proposes cuts) takes 6 MILLION private sector payers

And all those 6 million JUST goes to those 1 million salaries,, NOT a dime of that gets to the military, the infrastructure, the elderly, the schools,,

So in other words you need six private sector employees for every public sector one.

So for every six employees laid off by the public sector it behooves the government to lay off one of their own people?

Do I read you correctly?
