    What corporation? I thought we were talking about a government agency tasked with the safeguarding of American food & agriculture. You don’t randomly “cull” departments that are in the middle of handling a national emergency.

    Corporations do this to maximize profit. The US government is supposed to maximize helping citizens, it’s what we pay for. The U.S. government is essentially a non profit.

    For the US government, profit-motivated strategy is inappropriate.

    We need the people they fired to be doing their job even when there isn’t a pandemic. Having these people in staff is exact the same as hiring firefighters and cops, they’re for responding to emergencies. And just like firefighters and cops, they do investigation, training and research when there isn’t an emergency.

    These people should not have been culled. Doing so when there isn’t an imminent pandemic is stupid enough, but sacking them when there’s already several out reals in progress is monumentally stupid. It’s the exact kind of move I’d expect a short term thinker who has never dealt with personal consequences to act.

      thank you! you get it.

      people with decades of experience responding to communicable illnesses have been getting fired without cause or driven out of government just for some conservative publicity stunt.

    even corporations wouldn’t be stupid enough to fire people working on H5 response at the onset of a possible pandemic. If you end up removing people in critical roles then you delay response to a situation where weeks matter.

    THE GOVERNMENT ISN’T A FUCKING CORPORATION AND SHOULDN’T BE RUN LIKE ONE.
