the US gov't and state gov't are fucking retarded.
i have a friend who works for the state as an engineer... actually his lazy ass does surveying. the furthest he has traveled is 40 miles from his house, but everytime he is on a job that lasts more than 1 day, the state pays for him to have a hotel... and each person gets their own room plus $85/day in food
WTF! hes laughs about it because he said he just goes home and stays at his house, why bother packing a suit case when hes doing a job 10 miles away. think of how much money this wastes every day, its pathetic.
i heard crazy things about gov't employees and what they get. something like FBI agents (desk clerks, not field agents) get a car from the gov't even if they use it or not and huge benefit packages, plus nice expense accounts.
I can only image what these big heads of state get paid and their benefits are. I heard that all state reps and congress have full time drivers and a gov't issued car... which you know they pay sticker price for
absurd
