65. Governments, local, state, and federal hire Employees at market reduced wages
In return, they give out good benefits like a pension and health insurance. Without those benefits, governments would not attract good employees. No one is going to be a police officer nor a fire fighter for $25,000 a year in a city like San Jose.

Get rid of the benefits and you will get sub par employees.
