I didn’t call anyone a liar, but badly misinformed, and sounding a bit envious.
There’s not much to envy. Just this year, I matched the private sector salary I left in 2002, for the same job. The executive secretaries at that private sector company made a great salary, as much as the middle level managers, and they earned it.
Government doesn’t have cashiers, waiters, or factory workers to lower the workforce salary average. Almost everyone is well educated doing a complex job.
The smack talk about other Americans working on your behalf is getting old. While there may be jobs and even agencies that are not necessary, attacking the employee, based on class envy, is so very leftist of you.
Base Salary for a Massachusetts toll taker (an uneducated and unskilled cashier) is $60,000. That doesn't include health and pension benefits. Try finding one in the private sector for that.
