1. It is too bloated. Many are hired not because their work is necessary but purely for political reasons such as gratitude.\n\n2. Inefficiency. Government pay is not competitive with pay in private employment; hence, there is no incentive to work at your most efficient.\n\n3. Corruption. Because of the small pay, many are tempted to commit petty graft by stealing a ream of paper, or other such office supplies. The higher the office, of course, the greater the corruption.

The Government has created a portal to help individuals who need benefits because of life events. Visit http://www.govbenefits.gov\n\nUse the drop down button\nDO YOU NEED BENEFITS BECAUSE OF A LIFE EVENT?\nChoose Becoming Sick or Disabled and then see if you qualify for the available government assistance.\n\nForget grant money - there's hardly any money for individuals. Go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) and Grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. But you'd be hard pressed to find any grant that would support individuals.

Grants have objectives, and your purpose must fit the objective of the grant.\n\nFor one, you have to write the grant application and the grant application is not a simple document - you have to explain how your purpose for applying for the grant fits well with the objectives set out by the grant. Grants have objectives, and the grant applications that best captures the grant's objectives are approved.\n\nThere is a stringent review process through a committee composed of federal employees and selected experts in the field. You will compete with other applicants for the grant money, and this grant review committee will evaluate the merits of each proposal. Only those that they feel exemplifies the objective of the grant will be approved.\n\n\nhttp://www.cfda.gov\nhttp://www.grants.gov\nhttp://gtionline.fdncenter.org\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol66/grants.htm\nhttp://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html

True but it's not so much civil service employees as it is politicians. That being said, government employees enjoy the same benefits people who work for other companies get. When you're affiliated with something, you get perks that the general public would not. Pepsi employees get free soda, Gap employees get a discount off their clothes, cable company employees get free cable and Internet, etc. That's the way of the world. People let stuff like this get by all the time without saying anything. That's what needs to be changed. Not the perks... you know what I mean!

Allowing current employees first chance at the job.\n\nCosts are minimal...a couple sheets for the bulletin board, or a company email.\n\nThere are only benefits to internal job offerings, as it allows people that are already familiar with the internal workings of the company to select a job that better fits their personalities and skills.\n\nIf the employees are doing what they love to do, productivity and morale increases substantially.

Government run insurance, just like government run anything else, is the highest cost for the least benefits - it's the least effecient.\n\nThe purpose of government, in the eyes of the bureaucrats, is to grow itself larger, and make more problems, because if it doesn't do that, the government employees are OUT OF A JOB.  They don't WANT to be out of a job, they don't WANT you to be able to get what you want on your own, or in the private market, because THEY DON'T WANT TO LOSE THEIR JOBS. Which, by the way, provide benefits and compensation better than you can ever find in the private market, because . . . YOU PAY FOR IT.
