I think many people feel this way, because (particulary here in mostly-white Minnesota) the people they see working in the government offices are more diverse (minority or disabled) than their co-workers at non-governmental jobs. They carry over their bias against these people and assume they are less-desirable employees and would not have a job if the government didn’t give them this handout.

Concerning the idea that they are rude, in my experience, government employees are allowed to be much ruder to citizens/customers than workers in the private sector who would lose their job over bad behavior. An effect of unions?
