Well, we certainly would not want you to take a pay cut to serve your country. That would be unthinkable. Public service is only for fools who couldn't get a job anywhere else, right? Not for an astute business man like yourself. And you certainly wouldn't want to take on the responsibility of public office. That's just for morons. It's so much smarter to be on the outside being critical than actually trying to change something.

The fact that you deal with State and Local government doesn't necessarily give you any insight as to how the Federal Government operates. My limited experience with State and Local government as a consumer of their services convinces me that they could benefit from the disciplined miltiary environment where people's lives often depend on getting something done.
