Bailing out the Dysfunctional Civil Service System ... Release 2.0

The Civil Service System in the US is totally antiquated and dysfunctional. Today, the mounting legacy cost burden has been pushing many states and municipalities to the brink of bankruptcy. Many civil service employees have not seen any raises since the last recession, nor will they see any in the near future. Union contracts are being renegotiated every day, allowing relief to state and municipal budgets. Unfortunately, slapping the maxed-out taxpayers with more taxes or bonding out fictitious future sales and property tax revenues or private labeling stadiums and monuments will not cure their self-inflicted wounds. Only meaningful structural changes will take them off life-support and restore them to health again. This book will reveal a series of gutsy and long-term solutions to the challenges threatening the economic viability of the existing Civil Service System.
