Some government agencies already have pay-banding. I work for the Navy in San Diego...there is a major command out here that has been using pay banding forquite awhile. My command is already set to switch over.
Excellent. This system has been an uncontrolled major drain on the U.S. Treasury for far too long. Running it like a real business will do wonders and clean up the politics and extortionist protections of the unions (hopefully).
