Social Security Threatens To Close All Field Offices

21. Clinton/Gore began the movement for "reinventing government" and "putting people first" in the 90's

I worked for government then and most Federal workers were excited about their jobs because it made them feel good about being able to help their "customers" better, especially employees who worked for the SSA and other organizations that dealt directly with subsidizing people. FEMA, SSA,DOA etc. Employee morale was up and so were good services. More SSA offices were opened around the country and placed inside or along side frequented commercial buildings and in rural areas. Now the GOP anti-people in Congress want to change all that and the losers will be the most vulnerable public among us. We need to elect a Congress and a President who will not let that happen. Many of my Federal colleagues who worked then have since retired and have been replaced by the ol'e boy network and their families, especially in the south and mid-west as those places have become redder and redder. The results are what you see now. FEMA is more protected because it actually deals with helping more well-off GOPers who own property and live in blood red belts across the nation. But SSA and other social service agencies are going to continue to suffer if the GOP gets control. WAKE UP PEOPLE, WAKE UP!!!
