Of course, now that the lowest federal court has spoken, all those higher courts shouldn't worry if the judge got it right.
By the way, you forgot several cases in your description of government work.
Government employee saves contractor millions: Contractor's highly paid employee's unable to solve problem. Government employee suggest solution. Contractor saves millions, awards their employees with money. Government employee gets nice placque.
Contractor Gives Optimistic Technology Prediction to win Contract: Government emplyee warn superiors contractor not likely to perform due to overly optimistic assumptions. Superiors rly on contractor because if the employee was any good, why is he working for the government? Contractor cannot perform. Government pays to fix contractor mistake.
I don't know any federal employee like you describe. I know there are some. Most federal employees are hard working, honest individuals. Just remember one additional thing, all those individuals you hated at the government, have twins working in the private industry who are just as duplicitous and evil as those you describe.
Note: I work for the Air Force as well. In fact, I worked with some of the individuals who wrote the report that generated this discussion. They would never let the sort of behavior you describe go on.
As far as cutting the budget, well as long as they do it smartly, that justs the breaks. Unfortunately, while the budget has gone down, our committments have gone up. Research is at an all time low, with no end in sight. To be honest, I don't think the Internet would be funded now. It's link to fighting a war is just too remote.
