Excellent point
Kind of a dumb point, actually. Using a state trooper as an example...
Since the government functionary is one of 6.5 million people in the state, and 3.3 million of those people are employed, the officer in question is attempting to claim "self employment" status because he pays approximately 1/3,300,000th of his own salary.
Sorry, but that's just really dumb, and signifies a rather desperate effort to defend an indefensible position. The public does, in fact, pay the salary of government workers. It is what it is. Denying it only makes one looks even dumber.
Oh, BTW... if you buy his ridiculous fiction, then you must accept that I am an astronaut. After all, I've been within 1/285,000th of the distance to the moon.
