[quote=paramount]These outlandish retirements happen for quite a few reasons (none of them good), but at the end of the day it’s nothing more than greed and thievery.
What really sickens me is when those would defend these outlandish retirements/benefits say something like:
The answer I have seen is quit whining. If you don’t like it, you apply for one of those jobs to get those pensions and those benefits.
What these people don’t get is that some people – like myself – don’t want a job that steals from tax payers. I’d rather stand on my own two feet than feed at the gov’t trough.[/quote]
Do you think government contractors “stand on their own two feet” rather than “feed at the govt trough”? Seriously?
