Over 30,000 Federal employees make over $174,000.00 per year. Enough to become Elitists no longer seeing themselves in those they are supposed to serve. Their entitlement and retirement will keep them elite for life.

Career politicians on outside incom and insider business deals....

Insider trading is legal for Congress. How else do so many become multi millionaires while in public service? "Pay for Play"?

@dbongino I’m a federal worker. I’m a wildland firefighter for the forest service I make 16 an hour and sleep in the dirt all summer if I’m lucky I’ll see my wife and kids every 14 days. Yet my bosses in Washington make 5 times that it wrong. -
I'm in Colorado, you guys get cheers wherever you go. So much respect. They can't pay you enough.

They don’t the state makes twice what I do but the feds have the best helicopter programs and thank you

And if I'm not mistaken, from memory recall, they were also included in the elite group who could opt out of Obama Care. Obama Care was so great, wasn't it?!

No chance. If federal workers were underpaid, they’d leave their jobs in the bureaucracy to go into the private sector, where their paychecks would be drawn on the wealth they’d created vs. being drawn on the fruits of other people’s labor confiscated by the taxman.

Of course they say this. They want every worker to be employed by the government.

Because it’s their largest, most reliable voter block. And it got that way because of this very same erroneous “underpaid” claim, repeated over decades of election cycles.

Federal workers have the best deal with salary, benefits, automatic raises and protection from firing. State workers have the next best deal for the same reasons, except raises are not usually automatic because legislatures have to allocate raises.

I've always the more you privatize the gov the better off it would be. People act different when it's their bottom line at stake

I still can’t afford to live in the DC metro area on my federal salary. Not all of us are GS 13 or higher fat cats. The grand majority of federal workers are at the GS 11 and below salary

But you're still getting paid more than your counterpart who is not working for the government

Pay the private citizen more HTH

Private companies don't print their own money.
