The constitutional problem ... is rooted in a 1985 U.S. Supreme Court decision that held most civil service employees have a property right to their jobs. That right can only be negated if the employee has a meaningful right to respond to the charges.

Amazing. Utterly amazing. For all practical purposes, civil service laws constitute a 'ruling class protection act'. Where is the 'citizen class protection act'?
