because Americans have been trained get upset when they find how much government employees make and that's why their taxes are so "high".
- UrukParthian 8y agoIt's not only the pay but the immense cronyism* that goes into landing a government position and the general poor quality of customer service in face to face roles coughDMVcough. coughPublicTransitcough. CoughVirtuallyAllPublicEduxationcough. Add to that the standard arrogance, throughout the ages, of agents of Imperial power and you might start to understand why Americans have such a strong antipathy towards government workers. * - from personal experience being jerked around for 6 months (for a ing file clerk position). And wouldn't you know it. At the end, after the interviewers reassured me I was a likely hire, one of the interviewer's cousins got the position. Hmmm....
