Hmmmmm.....
What exactly do 5,000 people do all year round??? Other than collecting federal (read your's and mine) $$$ in salary, pension, vacation, medical coverage and other benefits.
You just proved my point. This is a "federal employment" program, nothing more, nothing less - most of what they do no doubt is being replicated 50 times over in this country - once in every state.
