— Federal employees make an average of $100K a year, according to watchdog group – ELISSA SALAMY (COMMENT: Ever since I became a federal employee in 1966 when I was 18 years old, my critics/opponents have viciously demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being overpaid. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. GAO started paying me $102,188 in today’s dollars in 1986 when I was 38 years old. In my defense, I had worked for GAO for almost 7 years, and before that, for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,935-$97,395. I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt when I was 32. I had become a licensed CPA when I was 32. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30. I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul when I was 31. I had earned an MBA from Loyola when I was 27. I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU when I was 21.)
https://foxillinois.com/news/nation-world/federal-employees-make-an-average-of-100k-a-year-according-to-watchdog-group
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Watchdog group Open the Books took a close look at how much federal employees are getting paid. “In most federal agencies today, the average salary now is six figures, $100,000 per year. But it’s not only about the big salary, it’s also about the benefits: 44 days of paid time off for the average bureaucrat,” said Open The Books’ Adam Andrzejewski to Jan Jeffcoat on The National Desk. “We also found nearly 27,000 federal employees out-earn every governor of the 50 states.”)

— Marine Who Spoke Out Against Leaders Jailed Before Hearing – Eric Mack (COMMENT: My Democrat GAO superiors did not jail me for my speaking out against political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination or for my becoming an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination and age discrimination, but they did force me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. Previously, my Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. Previously, my Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)
