I have a relative that made almost that much in overtime last year. He was part of a Federal Task Force. I love the guy…but WE were paying him almost unlimited overtime, and he doubled his salary. And now he gets that tax free? I am not sure that is how people want this to work.

Easy solution. Fire him and let him find a job in the private sector.

If he's as good as he believes, he should have no problem finding a job for a company that's willing to pay him the same salary.

There's too many people 'working' and I use that term loosely, in the public sector.

So...you don’t want experienced police on duty? Your comment is simply ignorant.

There are plenty of decent, hard working government employees. I just think they should pay taxes.

And by the way...you are paying for him while he is currently deployed. I should figure out what part of that you pay...and send it back to you.
