Why would Government Executive sell us out like that?   Who are they?

The article is crap and Robert Goldenkoff, director of strategic issues at the  GAO did a lousy job of countering it in his tedious comments.

Go look at the actual Koch Brothers (I ‘m rebranding the CATO institute)  It will make your head explode,

Like this quote:

“The federal government has become an elite island of secure and high-paid employment, separated from the ocean of average Americans competing in the economy”

 

 

And this one:

“Federal compensation is higher, on average, than compensation in the information industry, finance and insurance, and professional and scientific industries. “

 

 

But we are NOT AN INDUSTRY, we are NOT A SECTOR.   We are 2 million individuals doing all those jobs.   I work for a PhD metallurgist who took a $20,000 pay cut when his position converted from contractor to GS.

 

Compare federal doctors and lawyers to their private sector counterparts.

Comparing  our salaries to all  US  workers is a huge distortion of the truth because have very few menial jobs.  The minimum wage worker mowing the lawn outside my office works for the grounds keeping contractor, not the federal government.

 

At the risk of tipping my political hand, the people behind this are same  people who keep wages down in the private  sector.  They are responsible for the lower wage of the average American and they broke the economy in 2008 and drove the average down further. 

 

Not they want to turn those folks against us because we still earn a decent living.
