Government employees used to get less money but more job security and maybe a stable retirement on the low-end.
Now they get:
- The most money
- The most vacation days
- The most benefits (child care, health...)
- The easiest and fattest retirement packages
- The best medical packages
- Almost complete immunity from accountability - it is IMPOSSIBLE to fire them
- AND ALL THE VOTES.
Look how we scrimp and save so they can have more of our tax dollars to put into their national ad campaigns telling us to give MORE! MORE! MORE!
And oh how they SERVE!
THANK YOU, ALL OF YOU,
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY!
I think that is correct, but I would love to see a graph or a table charting public vs. private sector total compensation since, say, WWII. I imagine its out there if one knows where to look, and I figure someone here might.
