Federal workers are so much better than you and me.

"Privacy laws prevent release of individual tax delinquents' names. But we do know that
as of the end of 2009, 41 people inside Obama's very own White House
owe the government they're allegedly running a total of $831,055 in back
taxes. That would cover a lot of special chocolate desserts in the
White House Mess.

In the House of Representatives, 421 people owe a total $6,524,892.
In the Senate, 217 owe $2,774,836. In the IRS' parent department,
Treasury, 1,204 owe $7,670,814. At the Labor Department, where Secretary
Hilda Solis' husband had some back-tax problems before
her confirmation, 463 owe $7,481,463. Eighty-one workers for the
Federal Reserve System's board of governors owe $1,076,733.


Over at the Justice Department, which is so busy enforcing other laws
and suing Arizona, 1,971 employees still owe $14,350,152 in overdue
taxes."

And so much more.
