Amazing Feds

I learned from my latest issue of Newsmax Magazine that the federal workforce under President Obama has grown 13 percent. That's thousands and thousands of new workers. I guess that is one way to make the poor employment figures look better. But, it is all at taxpayer expense. Another revelation was that the federal workers are not good at paying their income taxes. The fact is, federal workers owe 3.4 billion in overdue taxes. That includes many employees of the IRS.  This continues at a time when the nation is suffering huge deficits. I suggest that the authorities go after the fed workers and make them pay-up, before they go after the poorer civilian workers that are delinquent. That would satisfy me.-------Grandp Gordon
