Yes they pay taxes with tax payer money. The government does not make money ... they only take from others. So any taxes a gov employee pays is from what started as earned income from the private sector.

Why is that concept so difficult to understand. That is just like when people get a tax refund and think the government gave it to them ... no they are just getting back the excess money they gave the government.

No government program comes from the government it comes from real tax payers.

Beyond national security we could debate the value of pretty much any government program. Not that some of them are not good ... but in most cases the private sector can do it cheaper, better and more efficient than government.
