Gov retorement pay is out of control. Most of it is based on the last year or the last three average. The gov unions give a ton of overtime to those people. My Bro worked about 80-100 hours a week his last year making almost 200k which his retirement was based on.

I saw a thing on Beck the other day. 5 years ago private sector average pay was 49,500 now it's 49,250 (or so)

Gov average pay 5 years ago was 46,000 now it's 79,000. so much for the Great Bush Depression
