and to richie - in my post i did indicate that it is your right AND your responsibility to get involved where i posted, "you elect people to make decisions for you re how your government will be run and how THEIR employees will be paid. and if/when you do not like the decisions that are made, it is your right and responsibility to vote for someone else."
'public servants' SERVE the public - the word servant is the noun/subject derivative of the verb to serve - service is not employment unless an individual is indentured - got it?

~Aside from Police and Firemen, please provide the list of public servants and what services they provide to
ME
~Also provide what services could not be provided by the private sector more efficiently...ie UPS is a much more efficient and reliable source than USPS. (Post Office failed to overnight a book to my son in college. We paid for that service but didn't get it. When we sought refund we were told (direct quote)"It's just a book"...wtf. So we gave them a second chance. Bought him another book from half.com for $75.00. It got lost in Post Office's system somewhere on the other side of the country according to their tracking system. I called often for several months. The book never was found and no one seemed to care to call me back (as p romised). Unfortunately we didn't insure the process and were out the 75$. Since then, 4+years, we send everything UPS! Average 2 packages/month and haven't had a problem yet.
Forgot to mention that this same 24 year old son has had a subscription to Sporting News since he was 5. The publication comes to our mailbox on Thursdays like clockwork. Every year the March Madness issue fails to arrive and is never received...Hmmmm
