“I would make anywhere from 30%-100% more if I took an equivalent IT job in the private sector.”
you sure about that? check the latest census numbers on median wage per industry…
my gut feeling is that in the past 10 years, public employment has surpassed private in terms of compensation and benefits… private was where you had a shot at making the big bucks, public was secure, but kinda meagre. not so much so, if cops and teachers are pulling 70k salaries… (numbers oft bandied about here in the past as examples of “median workers” who could afford their dream homes in santee)

Participant“I think the Governor could easily eliminate 20% of all gov’t employees with minimal impact to the state.”
Paramount–it would only APPEAR that way. That 20% gov’t workers(and that will be the lower rung, not the higher paid folks) will be outsourced, and instead of the money going to the workers, the money will go to one guy that heads up the contract. What that man will do is line his pockets with gold, get crappy and inefficient workers because he pays so low with poor benes, and the public will suffer. Their tax dollars are still be used for the same services.
Then, what will happen (and I have seen it), is anytime the gov’t needs more workers, they will give the money to the contractor to hire more workers. No bids, nada.
