You don't know how things work do you? If an employee becomes abusive the customer will complain because that company does not want to loose customers and hence money. The customer will switch airlines. The goon changes tactics or looses the job.

The government wont care much if you complain because they know you have no other options. The goon knows it and won't change.

A reputable company would rather have you say something so they can fix it and make better profits. They love feedback. That's how the real world works.

Paul and who else?

Like a number of other lawmakers, Lofgren said she returned money from her office budget to the Treasury, even after paying bonuses.

So Paul can go blowing his own horn, but he's not unique.

Well, thanks for the personal attack and personal obtuseness.
I do know what I'm talking about.
I have managed big government contracts. Apparently your political partisanship doesn't allow for anything other than personal attacks when someone disagrees with you.

You might want to learn a bit about the government contract process.
Education goes a long way.

So, how many government contracts have you managed?
Come on, don't be shy.

Pay attention.

Your comment had NOTHING to do with my post.
Your opinion does not equal fact.

Your attacks on people are uncalled for and I suggest that you read the TOS.

For someone who loveshiscountry, you sure do hate it's citizens who disagree with you.

You mean you were in charge of redistributing our stolen money?

Not sure I'd want to admit that.

Because you SAY you have no one should question you? Sounds like the tyrants in office you support. Guess what, people are always going to question you on politics. Quit saying things are attacks when they are not. Too much drama imo.

No here's the best part of this post full of "irony". After calling me partisan YOU just admitted YOU are big government. lmao
Who is partisan now?

I don't believe you when you say you've done government contracts. Prove it. Which contracts and for what department? As bad as government is and listening to who and what you support I might be inclined to believe it.

My answer DID have to do with YOUR post, I never claimed an opinion DOES equal a fact. What a silly thing to say, again. lol

In no way is my post an attack. I suggest YOU read TOS and have someone explain to YOU when that is violated since YOU are confused.

Another silly false statement. Why would the facts matter?

FACT - The person YOU voted for has horrible policies.
FACT - The policies put into place by your horrible candidate are similar to other failed policies which is what incompetent people do. They follow and implement bad policies.
FACT - The person you voted for has continued the economic policies that brought this nation to it's knees. Government manipulation of the economy doesn't work in the long run. The busts are always worse than the booms.
FACT - The person you voted for has continued to kill thousands of innocent people in the Middle East and risk the lives of US Troops needlessly.

I'll go with what works and doesn't impede on others rights, you keep supporting a murderer and a thief.
