[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is depressing as a taxpayer. Is any valuable work being done at all. This doesn't help the overall look of feds. I know there are areas that desperately need bodies and I know that there are feds busting their butts. This uneven distribution is what bit us in the first place, everyone thinking that they are all lazy because of a slim demographic. [/quote]

And why do feds have so much better health insurance than the rest of us? [/quote]

I’m not so sure they do. So many federal workers only know the benefits of other federal workers. A lot of government workers have convinced themselves that they receive fantastic benefits.

I’m married to a private sector employee who has worked for 5-6 employers during my time as a government worker. Every employer has offered perfectly fine insurance. Sometimes it’s a little more than my insurance, but it’s hardly anything so significant that I’d stay a government worker for it.

Can your spouse take it into retirement for themselves and family?  [/quote]

No but they don’t need to. Whether they work for the government or not they will work until Medicare age. Plenty of Fed employees do this.

More feds can retire before 65 with healthcare than those in the private sector.[/quote]
