The Environmental Protection Agency was forced to pay $55,000 to get an employee to retire because the EPA was unable to fire him, even though he was a convicted child molester who also imitated a police officer, officials testified Wednesday.
Stan Meiburg, acting deputy administrator at the EPA, said the agency attempted to fire the employee but the Merit Systems Protection Board, which adjudicates personnel decisions, overturned the decision. Instead, the agency paid the employee $55,000 to retire and leave the agency, he said.
Patrick Sullivan, the assistant inspector general for investigations for the EPA's Office of the Inspector General, said there are currently 90 EPA employee misconduct cases pending.
Translation: We are still paying the salaries of 90 people that probably should be fired.

THis isnt really something you can disagree on. You can argue that it has sense been corrupted like the OP did, but why it was created isnt really debatable.
