Seriously? If you choose to be a 'civil servant' you should not make as much money as the private sector, let alone more. I can't stand these people.

Some technical civil servant jobs need to pay as much as the private sector or maybe even more..or they would never get filled. Not talking about politicians but people who make the country happen and protect us.
Talking about cybersecurity folk, defense engineers and scientist etc.
Fed Gov workers didn’t used to make more than private sector. The trade off for bring paid less than the private sector was job security and good benefits. Now they have all that and in many cases much higher salaries. This started around the time George W. Bush.
