Well, keep in mind that you can't hear inflection online. What might sound fine and reasonable in person can easily be interpreted as rude or insulting.


Your problem, not mine. Take me at my word. Literally.

Call it whatever you want but it's still leeching. There's no gentle way to put it.


There are gentler terms.

Such as contracting for the government.


That's called performing a service for the client agency and being justly compensated for it.


That is indeed a very gently term for leeching.

I can't stand people getting on food stamps, for the wrong reason.

Here is my list of United States Presidents that I liked.

1. George Washington.
2. FDR
3. Abraham Lincoln
4. Bill Clinton
5. JFK
6. Thomas Jefferson
7.Andrew Jackson


FDR was an exponent of American Fascism. Fascism with a smiley face.
Abraham Lincoln was a tyrant and did things not permitted by the Constitution. Such as suspend habeus corpus.. Andrew Jackson was a genocider and a stone-killer. He did one good thing though. He closed down the National Bank for a while.
