"I suppose it would be nice to pay all of them less that they're getting now until unemployment hits 4% or so"

A good number of them are already getting less than the private sector. You want to shut down VA hospitals? I got paid more as a staff respiratory therapist in a 90 bed rural hospital in 10 months in the private sector in '08 (retired in Oct) than I would have made running the dept. at the Palo Alto VA (my previous job, had about 350 acute beds, spinal cord unit, 2 ICUs) in a full year.
