Uh, EVERY dollar that goes to a "public employee" comes from taxpayers. Whether they choose to spend it or use part of it to buy health insurance is irrelevant.

I'm less concerned about their health plans than the fact that they are drastically overpaid compared to private business employees. In time past, government workers made less than private business employees because their employment, benefits and retirement were more certain. That should still be the case.
