The average government worker now receives hourly pay and benefits that are 44 percent higher than the average private sector worker’s. Those high costs are bankrupting state and local governments—and taxpayers—across the nation.

But it doesn't have to be this way. A package of bills being considered by the Arizona legislature would reform this unfair spoils system, protecting workplace freedom, the state's economy, and all Arizona taxpayers.

ELIMINATE government unions now. Even a royal socialist like FDR stated that the inherent conflicts made them impossible for him to consider.

The average government worker now receives hourly pay and benefits that are 44 percent higher than the average private sector worker’s.

That's because government workers are 44% more productive and government shows a perpetual 44% or higher profit margin and because of it has earned financial solvency.

What private sector worker can truthfully state that about their company after taxes?
