only read about 5 chapters but this book is such a winrar that the facts make me lul pretty fucking hard. just started selecting a few chapters and i came up with some good shit.
I basically decided that I'm going to be a federal employee of some sort.
""get more than 5 weeks paid vacation plus almost 3 weeks sick leave.. 10 paid holidays"
"136 workers of the 1.9 million were discharged for poor performance each year, less than 0.01%"
""federal workers receive an enormous bonus of 33% over their salary simply because they work in the San Jose- San Francisco area"
"The Department of Agriculture has 1 worker for every 15 farmers"
"The Community Development Block Grant program [granted] 242,000$ to a Santa Monica homeless shelter, 250,000$ to a health clinic in Colorado where 94% of patients are below the 200% poverty line... the federal agency gave an unusually large grant of 1$ million dollars to a town of only 60,000 people... Greenwich, Connecticut... Where the average home is 1.6 million dollars"
(Government Employees getting credit cards to buy their own supplies for work) vvv
"37% of the charges were approved by the wrong offical. 7.7 Million in unauthorized charges in a 6 month period."
"personal bills of 5.8 million.Including Ozzy Osbourne tickets, tattoos, lingerie, bartender school tuition, car payments and cash advances"
"after a 1.8$ Million dollar sample 77% of charges were debatable and had no legitimate government need."
"The Navy [had a loss of] $1,342,000.90 in one 18 month period... 48,000 $ in gambling, 74,000 for exotic dance clubs and prostitutes."
"[So congress reviewed the problems and decided] to raise the spending limit from $2,500 to $25,000"
the whole book is full of shit like this that will just make you lul at stupidity
"yeah dude so lets save some paperwork money and just give the workers credit cards so we can save 50$ of paperwork fees herp de durp"
