Government over-market wages and pensions to public employees, are bankrupting government budgets and taxpayers alike.
One solution: Publish wage and pension scales, along with fringe benefits of all government workers. List only job description for the public to see. Let voters see how private earnings and pensions compare to public earnings and benefits, that they, the tax-paying voters earn for comparable work.
If there is to be open government, why hide a major cost of government? Yet, this part of the budget is always hidden from voters. (See the Earl J Weinreb NewsHole® comments.)
