>>gretchen: thank you, brian. if you work for the federal government, you're more likely to die than lose your job. that was the stunning analysis from "usa today" back in 2011. new numbers show not much has changed. in 2012 only .47% of federal workers were fired compared to 3% of workers in the private sector. with federal workers enjoying an average salary of over $80,000, how much is this costing our debt-ridden nation? joining me is james. i get the argument here. nothing against federal workers at all. it's more against the system; correct? >> that is correct *t that are the. once you pass your probationary year in the federal government, it becomes almost impossible to fire a worker. less than 300 workers who pass that first year get fired each year. most federal employees are working very hard but there's always deadwood. the system means you can't fire them. >>gretchen: there is sort of this i am plead so -- this implied tenure so to speak that once you pass that probationary period, you're safe? >> that'

neil: gretchen, let's say we get through this without much damage or destruction. minimizing the impact on those who are unemployed. to the bigger picture, we get through it okay. that is kind of calling the president's bluff, isn't it? does this hurt his credibility? >> i think it does, but more importantly, it hurts his overall agenda. this president wants an agenda that is spending more and building up a government that does more for the people and take some of the marketplace instead of the private sector. it only hur him and his credibility, but his agenda that spending is not a problem, which is what he wants us to believe. so he misses out on making some of his core principle arguments if this or that happens, sequester going into effect, american people do not see the ramifications that he said that we would see. >> i am just wondering about the next debacle to come. that is the end of march phenomenon wheree could look3 at a potential shutdown again. this was really tired of this? >> yes, we do, but i think the market has figured out that it is just noise
