Quote from Eight:
How does if feel to be working in the private sector... every morning you get up, go to job that pays half what somebody gets for doing next to nothing... and the public sector unions will ride the whole public sector and the economy right into the ground eventually anyhow....
Quote from Ricter:
So are they paid too high, or is the private sector paid too low? I know, I know, let the free market decide that. Only thing is, 1) the free market is deciding that a lot of people are completely unnecessary to its operation (I do my best to make this happen), and, 2) those that are still needed should have their incomes "aligned" with compensation rates abroad.
Quote from achilles28:
1) Automation isn't the problem. Outsourcing is.
2) That collapses debt-based economies leveraged to the hilt. America, Europe, Japan etc. Think Great D 2.0. Extreme wage disparity between 1st world and 3rd, is a direct testament to generations of sacrifice, innovation and entrepreneurship. We built it. It's ours.
