So I would take it that you don't think its fair for gov't contractor employees to enroll in bonus' at hotel chains, airlines, etc that induce them to stay there as well? how about targeted bonus' individuals receive from hotels and/or airlines? Again for federal contractors who's airline tix and/or hotel bills will evenutally be billed to the gov't either direct to a contract or via the indirect overhead pools? If you don't think this is fair either for the feds and/or contractors are you going to vote to appropriate money to the DCAA or GAO to audit all of these transactions to ensure that no promotions or incentives are being used on Govt contracts and are being paid for with taxpayer funds?
Accepting enrollment bonuses for a personal rewards account sounds like a gray area to me. I don't think it's fair because a venor (Marriott) shouldn't be able to offer a personal incentive like that to a government employee in order to encourage them to purchase their services.[/B]</font>
