Abstract: Abstract It is easy to be outraged when politicians, civil servants, and other public sector employees call for a massive increase in salaries. We have lost trust and faith in so many of our institutions and officials and can be astonished by their gall when they do special pleading. Worse, they often seem like the UK post office directors demanding more money at the same time as presiding over declining standards.
