Bureau of Public Debt - A Top Place to Work in the US Government

You just can't make this up.   Did you know...

The US Bureau of the Public Debt is rated the sixth best place to work from among 224 government agencies (aka Agency Subcomponents)?

Whoopee!  I would guess that job security probably gets pretty high marks.

If you visit their website http://www.publicdebt.treas.gov/  be sure to visit the up-to-the-minute US federal government public debt counter - http://www.treasurydirect.gov/NP/BPDLogin?application=np  that is now flashing a cool $15Trillion!

On the homepage, the BPD features an solemn quote attributed to Alexander Hamilton, "The United States debt, foreign and domestic, was the price of liberty."   Anyone besides me think that the debt today represents something altogether different?
