You're the one that stated all this is all the fault of the private sector, as they demanded all of this, implying that the reason all these government employees are working in such nice beautiful, landscaped, new tax paid buildings and guarded, secure facilities, and the reason their benefits, and salaries, and pensions are some of the best to be found anywhere, is because the tax payers in the private sector demanded it.Yeah, how about that?
That is EXACTLY what the taxpayers demanded.
They may not have specifically had it in mind--perhaps they thought that all those government "freebies" would be provided by unpaid serfs--but it's an inevitable consequence of outsourcing stuff to the government.

Well Poobop, I am so glad you stated this.
So when I go to downtown LA, or downtown Chicago for that matter, and go into any of the thousands of goverment building, where upon I observe hundreds of thousands of government employees, most overweight, with 3 inch fingernails, and they are all moving in slow motion, like they have just been offended. As one of the common folk searchs for a parking spot, one can't help but notice the hundreds of exclusive parking lots, just for government employees, and most all are full of new cars, with guards posted, security cameras etc.
And then we find out that government employee salaries, their medical benefits, and their pensions are endlessly improving and growing.
And you say all of this is the fault of the private sector, and the private sector demanded this of their government.
Ironically, the Bush Executive branch has been active in outsourcing a grater level of mundane, adminstrative tasks to private sector vendors. In fact, one of Kerry's little stump-pitched economic initiatives is to revoke the various private sector outsource contracts implemented under this Bush Administration and to return those tasks to higher paid, ridiculously better-benefitted and pensioned unionized civil servants. RAT plantation voters.
