Lol, I am pregnant and have had several people tell me how lucky I am to get paid maternity leave (this is news to me)!  And this was before Obama's EO letting us take advanced sick leave.  There seems to be a lot of misinformation and assumptions out there about how amazing our benefits are.[/quote]

How do we fight misinformation? I've been told numerous times that my pension will be greater than my salary when I retire at 50. Umm no.[/quote]

The problem is all politics is local.

[b]In state and local government[/b], lavish benefits and pensions are still the norm (which is part of why there are so many municipal bankruptcies), and it is rife with corruption and nepotism.

But for the vast majority of people, distinguishing between federal government and their overpaid county bureaucrats is too much trouble. [/quote]
Um, no.  I'm in state government.  You are doing the same thing that is done to the feds, just assuming that someone else has great benefits and pensions.[/quote]
