Washington ain't "the place to be"
and I'm sure there are diligent, hard workers on the Fed payroll just as much as I'm certain there are others that are less diligent. As to which group is the higher number...I believe my opinion is "duly noted".
Those in my family that are earning fed paychecks do actually work. Get alot more holidays than I do, though.
But as box so eloquently pointed out...I live in joisey...where it seems the only qualification necessary to earn close to 200k/yr is to be the gay lover of the governor. Being the brother of the mayor gets you no-bid 5million contracts. There are quite a few on the payroll 2 and 3 times, more dozens of no show employees.
My dream job.

joisy jobs
"state " does not equal "federal." Your conflation of the two does not astonish me, however.

Its very much the same thing
I know many many many fed employees. As I said in my post. Some of them actually work.
Its seems you think I should make some distinction between local, state and fed workers...and by some leap think that fed workers are better than state or local?
Such a nice thing to have someone of faith. Faith that their tax dollars are hard at work supporting a diligent, hard working, ultra-efficient federal workforce.

I'll put the federal peons up against the perfumed princes of the private sector (Enron, anyone?) any day. And you, Bill? You work so very, very hard as against anyone on the public teat? Prove it.

So now your position is
that the government is more effective/competent than the private sector?
We posture as apostles of fair play, as good sportsmen, as professional knights-errant-- and we throw beer bottles at the umpire when he refuses to cheat for our side...We save the black-and-tan republics from their native [statesmen]--and flood them with "deserving" democrats of our own. We deafen the world with our whoops for liberty--and submit to laws that destroy our most sacred rights...We play policeman and Sunday-school superintendent to half of Christendom--and lynch a darky every two days in our own backyard.

I'm just interpreting your writing
Feel free to write differently. :-P

Yea, there's no conspiracy . . .
