2.4 million Federal jobs get cut. Let's assume a VERY conservative average of a 125k cost of each employee for their salary, healthcare, pension and other benefits.
2,400,000 x 125,000 = 300 BILLION dollars permanently cut from the Federal Budget and returned to the pockets of tax payers. To say nothing of the rare cases where actual work was being done which can now be performed by the private sector.
Bonus benefit: A large dependent class of voters who will always vote Democrat has now been dissolved.
This of course does not calculate the tax dollars of the programs these people were associated with which obviously be much larger $$$. But just the salary savings will be dramatic.
A little bit of very simplified math.
