Here is an interesting email from “David” in response to Six-Figure Federal Salary Gravy Train<\/a>. The response was not what I expected when I first saw the Email. David Writes:<\/p>\n Hello Mish.<\/p>\n I read your article about the salaries of government workers compared with the private sector. I am a police officer. I won’t say where, let’s just say it’s one of the most expensive cities.<\/p>\n I am 29 years old and I make about $130k a year with overtime. Most of the officers make this and some even make $185k a year. A few supervisors in Internal Affairs have made of $200k along with detective sergeants.<\/p>\n To be honest, I think our salaries are totally out of touch with not only the private sector, but with America. It’s absolutely ridiculous. When I became a police officer we were all making way below what private sector employees made. I took the job knowing I will never be rich but knowing I will have a stable job with benefits.<\/p>\n Little did I know my union would secure very good contracts at the expense of pillaging the public. This cannot go on. I have studied and read Robert Prechter’s Conquer The Crash<\/span> book and how he (and you also) say we will have a deflationary collapse. I agree totally.<\/p>\n I’m just paying off debt while the going is good and have put most of my money in gold (at $800 an ounce). I’ll probably sell that gold soon because it’s getting popular in the media and on the radio. So yes, I just wanted to let you know that these govt\/federal\/state jobs are ridiculous.<\/p>\n Continue reading at Mish’s »<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Join the conversation about this story »<\/a><\/p>\n See Also:<\/b><\/p>\n Here is an interesting email from “David” in response to Six-Figure Federal Salary Gravy Train.
