Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

I think you mean double effective. Seeing as each fed needs to cater for double the populace.
We mean the same thing I believe. I phrased it thinking of how on a per citizen basis they now only have half a fed workers time they used to, while your phrasing comes at it from the employee has to do twice as much with the same resources.
I'll concede I probably was not clear in the way I intended and I appreciate you reframing my thoughts for me. 😅
No you're right. Now that I've slept on it I see your point. When looking from the population perspective there are half as many fed agents available so they are half as effective (increased wait times, reduction of services etc).
We have succeeded in getting each other to see it though the other person's perspective, so this has turned into a better comment chain than probably 90% of political posts! 😁
