No friend, I don’t want what’s yours. You are the one who wants, and expects, me to fund my retirement as well as yours. If you want a fat pension you can save up and buy one, why does the public have to buy it for you? It’s the public unions who are entitled to what I have. Not vice versa.

your just another angry guy.. I pay into my own retirement I get paid to do a Job that you decided you didn't want ... Corporate America and the private sector played you and are still Screwing hard working Americans like yourself .. but its easier to blame the person to your left and the right of you than the hand that feds you ...

So you’re not necessarily angry when you say I don’t like science, but I’m angry when I show what a stupid statement that is. Got it.

Youvpay a portion of the cost of your pension, and you feel entitled to ask your neighbors to pay for the rest. Is that true, or is that false?

The private sector you endlessly slam, is where every cent of your compensation comes from. Every cent, comes from taxes confiscated from your neighbors. How can you be that ungrateful and unappreciative? I was a public schoolteacher in CT, and I always was aware of the debt I owed to people that worked in the private sector, and I also saw firsthand the contempt that many public servants have for the public they claim to serve.

You dont understand the private sector does a job they have no obligation to thank people like you who for what ever reason think they should get a pat on the back for paying the same taxes they do the arrogance is stunning

Public sector employees derive wealth from taxes (yes you pay taxes too, but you are on the receiving end as well). Private sector employees see a loss of wealth from taxes. Is that going too fast?

Not sure what you are saying, but I have worked both in the private sector and the public sector, and I always felt grateful to those who funded my income.

Public sector employees have a deeper obligation to their customers (the pubic), because unlike the private sector (where you must make customers freely choose to give you their money), in the public sector, you forcibly confiscate money from your customers (neighbors) with the force of law. You therefore have a higher duty not to rip people off. But your union does exactly that, by demanding your neighbors pay a good chunk of the price tag for benefits that they will never, ever see. You feel entitled to demand that your neighbors pay for benefit t hat they will never see. I don't get where that sense of entitlement comes from.

Except a Space Force is federal - which was left out of the link / stats you provided

So the Red states are more likely to have more Public Sector Employees.

Now let's do the states that pay most on average. Bet you won't guess which ones they are. I wonder of the red states can afford more public employees?
