Even if this were true, it would be irrelevant. In private business people make exactly as much as someone else is willing to pay them. Bureaucrats make exactly as much as they are capable of extorting from people in the productive economy. The one has nothing to do with the other. If you want one of those higher private salaries, go get one and stop complaining. Why don't you?
and for those of us who are protecting you from the real world, there are no non-Fed counterparts to compare us to.
I never asked for your protection racket and I want out of it. Why won't you let me be free? That you won't is proof of what a fraud the racket is.
you complain that my salary is paid by taxes taken from your pay at the point of a gun; what about the taxes taken from mine?
I've told you before. Anything you net has been taken from other people. It makes no difference how many shell games they play with the money. The net is stolen. The rest is shuffled around - in part, I suspect, so you can pretend you pay taxes.
You responded: I never asked for your protection racket and I want out of it. Why won't you let me be free? That you won't is proof of what a fraud the racket is.
The 'protecting' I was talking about is the Intelligence Community and the military that protects this country from far more dangers than you'll ever know about. Read before you prattle. Now tell me again about the protection racket you're complaining about. And, hey, do you think I should be stripped of my right to vote like Aurelius does?
