Want to Get Rich? Work for the Feds.

We're in trouble. According to the Washington Examiner, "As of 2008, the average federal salary was $119,982, compared with $59,909 for the average private sector employee...In other words, federal workers are paid on average salaries that are TWICE as generous as those in the private sector, and they receive...benefits that are FOUR times greater...Public sector pay and benefits at all levels should be reduced to make it comparable to the wages and benefits earned by the average working taxpayer. *****The first politician to propose a five-year plan for this purpose is likely to be cheered mightily by taxpayers!"*****

WHO'S WILLING TO STEP UP?? Political consultants who advise their clients to stay away from cutting gov't spending, and yes, jobs, should be fired. This is a winning issue. And part of the only way America can avoid a Greek-like disaster.
