When I worked for the government in DC in the early 80’s most people made a decent living. The pay was about equal or less than equal of what you would make in the private sector but, the benefits were better. Now government workers make a lot more money and benefits then the private sector, it’s sickening. One of my relatives works in travel for the government. She’s been there for 33 years and worked her way up. She has worked hard but, her 90+k a year salary is ridicules. When she retires at 55 she can get 80% of that. It’s just to much.

Don’t worry, she won’t get it. She’ll probably be on your doorstep looking for a handout.
