but what is actually an "average" worker? Is it a factory worker, someone slinging burgers at McD, the Walmart cashier, or someone in a white collar middle management job?
Problem is that the government have very, very few blue collar workers and the clerical positions have all been contracted out -- so now those jobs fall on the "private" side. Since Gore decided to "reinvent" government, all jobs that weren't inherently policy making, and most support positions were subject to be contracted out.

And doesn't average generally include the highest and the lowest? I seem to recall that is why hardly anyone pays any attention to "averages".
