Legendary Investor Helps Trump Drain the Swamp

The gist

1. Kupor says replacing degree and experience requirements with practical skills tests lets talented people get hired and paid based on what they can actually do.
2. A new performance curve caps top ratings so not everyone gets an A, creating real pay differences between strong and weak federal workers for the first time.
3. Nearly 300,000 federal employees left through negotiated severance packages, which Kupor says was faster and cheaper than trying to fire people through standard legal channels.
4. Consolidating 119 separate federal HR systems into one could cut annual costs from 2 billion dollars to 40 million dollars, Kupor says.
