Of course we need a public sector – it is a part of our economy and the “way of life” in the United States.
However, we must be wary about the stringent differences between the public and private sector. Free-market capitalism sometimes gets bashed for greed and wealth, so let’s remember that the private sector DOES NOT have all of the benefits and perks that the public sector may offer. And remember that the more government we have patrolling our daily lives, the more we have to pay for that with our tax money.
It is arguably not the most efficient use of taxpayer money. RedState did a nice job of side-by-side comparisons of compensation amongst the two types of jobs. Check it out and let us know what YOU think!
