One of the problems with gov. workers is that most of them, if not all, are unionized. Their wages can only go up, never down.

Take for example, Air traffic controllers can easily make over 6 figures and retire EARLIER than other fed. workers.

While I believe that you think this is a fact, let me tell you a real fact. My husband is a federal employee working for the Supreme Court. He just told me that he doesn't even know anyone in a union and he has been with the gov't for 30 years
