It’s worse than just the number of people.

A couple of years ago someone published a report that for similar jobs with similar responsibilities a government job paid more than a private sector job.

You’ll have to decide for yourself: is it time to join the government payroll gravy train?

What do you think are the odds of your goverment worker pension defaulting like so many private sector ones have? TWA, McDonnell Douglas are a couple here in St. Louis.

So are you stating that it is better that folks be on government pensions? Somewhere on FR there was an article about how insolvent MANY government pensions are.

But no worry. If a government pension is in trouble all they need to do is contact the msm, get together a bunch of senior criers and it will all be made right.

Those pensions are connected directly to the tax-payer teat and are NEVER in trouble.
