Your own countrymen do not need reminding, unless it is your intent to be patronizing, and others don't care.
Why are people responding if they dont care?

Go ahead take the side of the intolerant freaks, don't really care what you have to say anymore.

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.

Maybe i am more optimistic than most, especially compare to people on here but is there anyone else who is more happy and optimistic about the government?

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.
