The employees of the Federal Trade Commissions Identity Theft Division need to be fired immediately and be barred from ever working for the Government again. The jobs of Identity Theft should be turned over to the FBI, we do not need to burden the taxpayer with redundancy or pretend that the FTC is helping solve these issues.
Giving fancy titles to the FTC employees who work in this department and paying their travel expenses around the world is absolutely wasteful and pathetic in my opinion. Indeed, Identity Theft has sky-rocketed in the past few years since the FTC was assigned to the case, nothing worthy has been done to slow the growth of online or offline identity theft in the United States of America.
In reviewing the Federal Trade Commission it has been noted that they spend thousands of tax payer's monies traveling around the country giving speeches and going to seminars. It appears to me at least that the Federal Trade Commission is no longer serving the people with regards to identity theft, but rather running around PR'ing and purporting that they are doing something about it.
Shouldn't we demand performance in the federal government? Do we really wish to issue government credit cards for Federal trade commission employees to fly around the country, eat out at restaurants and go to nice hotels and big seminars simply to ensure good press relations?
I want some answers and I want them now! The Federal Trade Commission and their division on identity theft is a complete and utter failure and it is disgusting that the US citizenry be lied to through trickery and public relations tactics, which in my opinion is exactly what is happening.
In my opinion this amounts to false advertising, misleading the consumer and lying to the American people. We should not stand for this. I certainly hope this article is of interest and that is has propelled thought. The goal is simple; to help you in your quest to be the best in 2007. I thank you for reading my many articles on diverse subjects, which interest you.
