Taxpayers are covering the salaries of federal employees who are full time union activists? And some people say there's no place to cut the federal budget. An Associated Press story in the June 5, 2009 edition of The Oregonian about Republican budget cutting proposals noted that the proposals included "...plenty of political proposals, including a move ...to block federal employees who are union activists from being granted time to devote all their work time to union activities". How many of these folks are on the federal payroll anyway? What a racket. And why is a proposal to eliminate these positions "political" and not "common sense"?
