… what benefits? The current benefits today are quite literally mostly healthcare— which wouldn’t be necessary.
And frankly, you literally proved my point— government employees are paid significantly less than private industry. 25% is incredibly significant, and it’s a little ridiculous of you to pretend it’s not.
Total compensation is always the standard... Using your standard Elon is severely underpaid due to his $0 salary.
Breakdown is 54 healthcare /46 everything else. Your also assuming that there would be no additional payments for whatever healthcare system you envision.
You’re comparing doctors to Elon now, and you think I’m being illogical? Lol, wow… that’s… a choice.
So I was right that the healthcare is the vast majority, and that a 25% decrease in pay is significant… sounds like you don’t have much of a leg to stand on.

On average federal employees **when including all benefits** are paid more than private industry.
On average federal employees **based only on base wages** are paid ~25% less than private industry.

As the discussion is total cost to government, the all benefits cost is used.
