I agree with you on this article. However, as an airport employee in Chicago, I see first hand how our government wastes our money by lavishing the TSA with their own limosine transportation to their own private parking lot. Meanwhile, unlucky grunts ride broken down, unsafe old school buses to a dumping ground for cars up to 30 minutes away. And you don't want to know the kinds of cars in government reserved parking: Mercedes, Audis, Corvettes, Hummers and late model SUVs.
When did being a civil servant become a high paying career for incompetent morons?

It's like that in any large organization. I work for a corporation in the private sector and plenty of morons are promoted into high paying positions. All that matters is perception...never truth. Kissing arse and being friendly with the boss trumps hard work and talent.
We live in the largest developed nation in the world where the government spends a HUGE amount of money on defense spending and our quality of life is still greater than most countries in the world.
Seems like it is just a new trend to "hate the government" even though they don't know what they are talking about and just hate the government because so many other people do.
I would appreciate if laws were followed and the constitution meant something. We have people lying to congress about spying, no discipline, no nothing. We have wall street people and banking higher ups and nobody goes to jail for anything, they're too busy squashing the little guy to worry about tossing the wall streeters and the bankers in jail where they belong.
If laws only apply to poor people, i'm not sure the government is doing as well as they could be doing.
