the compensation thing is kind of a myth for state and federal level government employees; they're absurdly compensated when you factor in their holidays, vacation, health insurance and retirement packages, especially if they work in states with pension-type plans.
Local/city level positions you're probably right
That's my point though that's why people work in government for less pay, all those benefits. The lets run the government like a business crowd comes to power and healthcare and retirement all proposed to be cut without a slide increase in pay to offset that. So now you have a business that doesn't offer better benefits or pay what kind of worker will you get.
