Federal Pay Continues Rapid Ascent

The Cato Institute summarizes a study on Federal Employee wages at this link:

The distressing results:

• In 2008, federal worker compensation averaged a remarkable $119,982, which was more than double the private sector average of $59,909.

This is unconscionable. The size and expense of the Federal Government must be reduced.
