Jobs such as the one you had are wanted and needed. Anything that saves tax payer dollars is obviously a very good thing. There are Government jobs that are heavy at the top when we do not need that. Obviously more Private Sector jobs would move the economy a lot better than what is going on present. We need leaner more efficient Government.

We were a very good value for the taxpayer.
