1. Nepalis are Buddhists, not Muslims.

2. How would making airport security drones Federal employees help anything?

Are Buddhists known to go around so heavily armed? I thought they were non-violent. There have to be other religious groups in Nepal.

Answer to 2: It would help make the DemoNAZIS stronger by adding 27,000+ low IQ people to the federal payrolls and federal workers unions.

Simple, when it is Federalized, profit is not a motive. This is the case with all our Armed Forces, Police and Fire. Why should a security function be left to the free-market. It is clear to me that profit will always motivate some private company to cut corners.

I know that by making the workers Federal, the cost will most certainly rise. It is a cost I am willing to pay.

The one and only area where Federal workers makes sense is in the security arena.

More than one million Nepalis (~5% of population) are Muslims.

Mostly, Hindu.

[wideawake]

According to CIA factbook, Nepal is 86% Hindu, 7% Buddhist, 5% Muslim and 2% Christian or animist.

[demnomo]

The majority of people from Nepal may be Buddhists, but there is also a small Muslim population. Check your geography books.

Well, for one thing, they would get better retirement benefits, for another, they would get better health care benefits. For yet another thing, they would be paid more and for still another, they would become almost impossible to fire.

Finally, they would all be suddenly eligible to become members of AFSCME.

And doesn't this list of things help? < /sarcasm >
