This is a public matter that the taxpayer should question especially when the value added is questionable. Go change your diaper and take a nap. My brother in law died 10years ago asshole. So what make you an expert on federal compensation? just get a government job....simple solution as they are the countries largest employer.

Outside of the VA and Post Offfice, at the independent agencies and departments the average wage is $100k. Hard not to say their isn’t a serious swamp with little value added for the price. These are just salary figures as well and not total compensation with bennies. Three counties around Washington DC are the wealthiest in the nation in terms of pay. That's fucked up.

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted January 3, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) Insane. $131,000 average pay. Reforming Federal Worker Pay and Benefits Chris Edwards September 20, 2017 The federal government employs 2.1 million civilian workers in hundreds of agencies at offices across the nation.1 The federal workforce imposes a substantial burden on America’s taxpayers. In 2017 wages and benefits for executive branch civilian workers cost $276 billion.2 Since the 1990s, federal workers have enjoyed faster compensation growth than private-sector workers. In 2016 federal workers earned 80 percent more, on average, than private-sector workers.3 And federal workers earned 42 percent more, on average, than state and local government workers.4 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. Employee Benefits The Bureau of Economic Analysis provides data on the average value of federal and private sector benefit packages.16 In 2016 federal workers enjoyed average annual benefits of $38,450, which compared to average benefits in the private sector of just $11,306. That large difference stems from more federal workers receiving certain types of benefits than private workers, and from particular federal benefits being more generous than those provided in the private sector. Studies comparing federal and private benefits for similar workers have found a large federal advantage. The 2017 CBO study found that cost of employee benefits was 47 percent higher for federal civilian employees than for similar private-sector employees.17CBO found that “The most important factor contributing to differences between the two sectors in the costs of benefits is the defined benefit pension plan that is available to most federal employees.”18 The AEI and Heritage studies also found large federal advantages with respect to worker benefits. https://www.downsizinggovernment.org/federal-worker-pay Edited January 3, 2018 by Highmark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
