I generally find the many alleged examples of public sector employees getting benefits and perks not available to the average American private sector employee to be unconvincing evidence that public employees are somehow living off the government largess.
But folks sleeping on public property and using public facilities to get out of paying rent is probably the example I'd be most sympathetic towards as illustrating that point. So in a sense it is about what public service "entitles" one to, especially when we're talking about the folks at the top of the pyramid making the rules.
It doesn't cost the taxpayers any more whether they sleep in their office, or get an apartment.
What difference does it make in your life?
It doesn't cost the taxpayer anything to have a bum sleep in a bus station either
Exactly.
I see no reason that bums shouldn't be allowed to sleep at the bus station.
Now you're understanding my point.
