Much has been made about how Federal workers make far too much money. I'm inclined to think it's not as bad as this: the government is made up of far more white collar workers and it's disingenuous to compare accountants to McDonald's fry cooks. That said, benefits ARE more generous in federal government jobs by any comparison and should be scaled back.
The point of this post however is this:
Lobbyists Rush to Hire G.O.P. Staff Ahead of Vote
I'm not trying single out G.O.P. here, but rather make the point that no matter how much you scale back Federal salaries, you still have a ridiculous amount of money going to people who produce nothing - and this is a drag on the economy.
