This is how capitalism works. You get a good education and you can make lots of money. Those jobs are private companies. Some here sound like liberals who complain about CEOs making to much. Instead of complaining, apply for ceo positions. Everyone has choices and if you dont like the choices you made, change them!!!!!
I understand your point, but not all those jobs listed are private sector, and as you know, the average salary these days (not to mention pension and benefits) is higher for the public sector than the private. In this particular story, they cite a Bay area transit janitor making close to $300,000/year in salary and benefits. You and I pay for public sector jobs, and there has to be some sanity involved or it is unsustainable.
You amoral types end up going to hell.
