I think all federal employees should be limited to that many years of service as a civil servant and then not be able to take a job as a contractor for the agency they worked for. I don't care if there is a pension later for it, I just want them to not be lifelong career.
I also think a lot of federal agencies can go away.
Since January 2009, the salary for Members of Congress has been $174,000.00.

A full pension is a % of this, supposedly depending on no. of years of service and based on last 3 year's of "service".
( ... Under FERS, the accrual rate is 1.7% for the first 20 years and 1% for each year after. )

This doesn't include the gold plated health care benefits, the compensation on various boards of Companies, and alleged kickbacks after retirement.
note to self - win election at 58...
So most of them shouldn't even get a dime!
Don't worry, when this is all over they will be lucky to even exist, let alone getting any payments.

Yeah, but you didn't pull in $174,000 a year for being a B.S. agent either, as almost all of them are.
Congress should not get paid at all. That way corrupt people will have less incentive.
