Not only complete rubbish; but lazy commentary. BTW, if you are half-intelligent it doesn't take all that long to support your opinions with some facts. You are just a lazy observer.
Here are the facts as reported in a recent CBO study on this subject.
The KEY Finding:
Overall, the federal government paid 16 percent more in total compensation than it would have if average compensation had been comparable with that in the private sector, after accounting for certain observable characteristics of workers.
But for the leftards who need pictograms to understand:
The study also does not consider job security. There can be no doubt that federal employees enjoy much greater job security than those in the private sector. It is not unreasonable to conclude that federal employment is a very good deal: 16% more compensation, on the average, perhaps for doing less work, and certainly with better job security.

And Here is the report that shows Government employees do less work and work less hour than private sector employees.
An indication that the government employee has a very very cushy existence when compared to private sector workers.

... Also, federal workers are far better educated on average than the average public sector worker and so make better average salaries, but no one here bothers to take "facts" like that into account.
I don't bother wasting my time debunking the crap righties put here since it takes them only seconds to post lies and BS and it takes significantly longer to dig up truth and facts.
