I feel like I’ve read 100 articles about the horrors of NEPA and none of them ever call for just repealing it. Anyone know why?

“The first challenge is personnel: government pay has not kept up with private pay, and the public workforce has not kept up with the workload; public-sector work is instead increasingly privatized, raising costs.’

I’m a living example of this. I retired after 29 years came back as a consultant (because they were hamstrung by the legislature to hire permanent replacement positions), and I’m making 50% more than when I left. And if you’re wondering why I stayed 29 years at crap wages, I really liked my job and it came with a secure pension, like no other private engineering firm offered.
