Political Plums and Payrolls Opinion by Barry Goldwater
Barry Goldwater argues that government payrolls have surged since 1950 reaching 2.5 million non military workers with monthly payroll costs about 14 billion. A pending bill would add 539 million annually and total raises since 1962 could reach 1.65 billion. He contends pay boosts favor top appointees while lower wage workers rise little. He questions the need for higher salaries to attract talent.
