Comments:

EXCEPT FOR VETERAN'S PREFERENCE, IT APPEARS THAT THE NEW PROGRAM IS MUCH THE SAME AS A LARGE CORPORATION IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR. THE DANGER BEING THAT AN EMPLOYEE CAN BE DISCHARGED BY A MANAGER FOR ANY CAUSE, AFTER A PSEUDO FAIR HEARING, THE OUT COME BEING ALREADY PRE-DETERMINED. PAY /PROMOTION BEING WITHHELD USED AS A PRECURSOR. THE PRESENT SYSTEM CAN BE MODIFIED TO ACHIEVE NSPS GOALS WITHOUT SACRIFICING JOB SECURITY, WHICH IS THE CORE OF GOVERNMENT SERVICE.
