"It used to be that public wages were dramatically less than those in the private sector.
Their relative permanence and insulation from the rigors of the marketplace were thought to be sufficient compensation to offset the financial difference.
Clearly, that has turned upside down.
While still maintaining their employment-security aspects, these jobs now earn significantly more.
As roughly 1 out of 8 working Americans have jobs in the government, this is a very big deal.
So, next time you’re in an argument about government spending, it may not just simply be a philosophical or policy difference.
There’s a 1 in 8 chance their real agenda is just making sure your money keeps flowing into their pocket."
