Government credit card abuse is at an all-time high even after the federal government has put forth new legislation against Government credit card abuse. Recently, USDA employees from the United States department of agriculture used at their government credit cards to buy Ozzy Osbourne tickets to a local concert.

It must be nice for government workers to steal taxpayers money and know that they cannot be or will not be prosecuted for stealing. It is amazing that we have government workers who are in charge of enforcing the laws in our country who clearly believe they are above the law in every regard.

But that is not all that some of the USDA employees have used credit cards for. Some have gotten tattoos, a car for their mother (yah right?), and all sorts of other goodies and gadgets. We ought to give them a tattoo that says; THIEF on their forehead and another one on their Butt.

Some have charged that the Government credit card abuse was widespread in the military and yet it was not widespread. The problem with stealing and government credit cards, which is taxpayers money goes much deeper than just the military services. After all, when a group of soldiers or sailors have time off for rest and recovery they deserve a little fun on the town and it helps build camaraderie. But USDA employees going to an Ozzy Osbourne concert and buying tickets on taxpayers government credit cards is BS.

How can the American people trust the United States government when we find dishonesty at all levels? How can we trust the USDA when their employees are stealing from the taxpayer? How can we trust anyone in government when these things go on? I believe the taxpayers are owed an explanation and they have been waiting for it for nearly a decade. Please consider this in 2006.
