[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in a non-profit, so arguably, really serving--not faux "public service" that government employees claim. So I probably make less and do not get a pension. So please spare me the "years of public service." We're all working hard, so there's no argument there. You are not changing the world, and you didn't go into government work to make the world a better place, you did it for security, the fact that it's nearly impossible to get fired, and for the pension. Public service. Please.[/quote] Look I am not going to argue every govt worker is saving the world but surely you are not going to suggest everyone who works in a no profit is either? We can argue all day long about whether someone who keeps one family from being evicted is doing more public service than someone who implements an effective antipoverty program but none of my friends who work at anti poverty organizations would suggest that they can do it on their own without help from the govt.
