I think you also need to take into account that not all federal employees live/work in the DC metro area. Federal employees are spread across the entire country. For example, in this last weeks round of slash and burning of the Dept of Ed, they made sure to fire all SF based employees first, in line with the current administrations political revenge agenda. So the DOGE reductions in gov't will affect all states, not just the DC area. Get ready, bc between you, me ant he fence post, we're staring down an IMMINENT recession this year. |
