The difference is the taxpayers are on the hook for the public sector. Private sector is market driven.... You don't think the private and public sectors compete for qualified people? Unless you want completely unqualified people running (ruining) your city then you have to pay a decent wage. And yes even in the public sector it's a free market, if you want the best city manager of school superintendent or transportation manager you have to pay top dollar or they'll go to Chicago or Hammond or somewhere. It seems like you don't think any public employee should make more than you? These are highly qualified and experienced people with very important jobs. They are not volunteers... they are professionals like you and me and expect to be compensated. Like everything else you get what you pay for.
