这事儿，还需要像搞学问那么去研究么。在哪个国家干政府工都不会亏，即便亏那也是表面现象。

Britain
Public sector workers earn £3,200 more than those in private sector
Public sector workers across large swathes of Britain earn up to £3,200 more than those working in the private sector, a think tank has found.

According to Policy Exchange, a right-leaning think tank, public sector workers in the North East, Merseyside and the South West enjoy a 14 per cent pay “premium”.
On average, the analysis found that public sector workers earn 6 per cent more. The report says they also enjoy better pensions and perks than private sector workers.
The report’s authors have called for the government to end national pay bargaining, under which public sector workers receive the same levels of pay regardless of where they live.
George Osborne, the Chancellor, supports public sector pay reform but has been opposed by the Liberal Democrats and provoked a furious response from the unions.
The report states: "A characteristic of the setting of pay in the public sector is the system of national pay bargaining.
"This means that pay across large swathes of the public sector is set with little regard to differences in the cost of living and labour markets in different areas.
"We have urged the government to remove automatic pay uplifts for public sector employees, abolish national pay bargaining and move to a system of pay negotiation which can reflect local labour markets and reward performance."
The Policy Exchange analysis has been adjusted to take into account age, gender, qualifications and length and type of employment.
It found that in the South East, East of England, West Midlands and inner London public sector workers earned less than those in the private sector.
In every other area in the country public sector workers were better off. In Merseyside the annual pay of public sector workers was 14 per cent more, while in Scotland it was 10 per cent higher.
It comes amid growing concern among politicians that private sector workers are not enjoying the benefits of Britain's recovering economy.
Danny Alexander, the Chief Secretary to the Treasury, said last month that private sector workers deserve pay rises to ensure that they "share in the success" of the recovery.
He made clear, however, that public sector workers will face a pay freeze for several more years.
The government is trying to redress the balance by ending automatic pay rises for civil servants and other public sector workers in prisons and the NHS.
Mr Osborne has criticised progression pay, which is also used in education, local government and the civil service, as "at best antiquated [and] at worst deeply unfair to other parts of the public sector who don't get it and to the private sector who have to pay for it".
Jeremy Hunt last week sparked a row with NHS staff after urging the pay review body to scrap a 1 per cent pay rise due in April. Unions have accused Mr Hunt of using “bullying tactics”.
National pay bargaining is also being abolished in schools.
Schools were expected to introduce guidelines at the start of the current academic year showing how teachers' pay would be linked to performance, although any changes to salaries will not actually be made until September 2014.
Individual schools have been given complete freedom to define “performance”, with recent government guidance suggesting wages could be linked to teachers’ ability to improve pupils’ exam results, keep order in the classroom or take part in extra-curricular activities.
Ofsted is being given a specific remit to ensure salaries are tied to teaching standards.
But the move has sparked outrage among teaching unions who are staging a series of strikes in protest over the reforms.
The National Union of Teachers and the NASUWT, which collectively represent nine-in-10 teachers, staged a regional walkout in the North West of England earlier in the summer and across the Midlands and Yorkshire last week.
They will strike across the North East, London, the South East and South West on October 17 before staging a national strike before Christmas.
