You are so much in denial
People lose government jobs. People go on unemployment. We pay either way. Or if they unlucky enough to not have unemployment insurance, we still pay for them because they go on Medicaid and other programs. Except for the ones that become homeless. We don't have to pay for them if they die. Which is evidently what the Republicans prefer. Why not just out and out execute them? At least it would be straightforward instead of slimy underhanded dealing.
