Government pay scales don't apply to government contractors, though. It would definitely be possible to develop things at a lower cost than defense contractors do, but not with the artificial limits on salaries imposed by the law.
- oliwarner 8y agoI've had several reads of this now, and don't understand which way you're arguing. The current US Government pay scales are more than enough to match average developer salaries in much of the US. No, they're not going to get super-rich but they could get paid more than enough, help their country and have a stable job that doesn't rely on finding ways to monetise faddy bullshit ideas.
