Here is an interesting story of a couple of idiots that work for the
government who will soon be working in a government prison. You have to
really dumb to steal from the government because they will give you 15 years
for something and in civil court you might get parole or 6 months.

Give it a read

I think the best part of the article was the quote from the U.S.
Attorney who said it "was disgraceful that they conspired to defraud
the taxpayer and line their own pockets".
Isnt that what Congress does every day?

You are right. I never thought about it that way. I wonder what Richard
Jefferson (D-LA) is going to get for the $100,000 bribe they found in his
freezer.

Cunningham got 8 years for a lot more than a few golf balls.
