Just how much do you think a DOT worker should make? In NY a laborer makes about 15 per hour. To get the job he had to score in the top 5 on a civil service test. Average house is about 130,000 Gas in Ny is between 3.70 to 4.25 a gallon Rent is a minimum of 600.00 per month. I can assure you that he does not lean on a shovel all day,although we all like to think they do. I can also assure you that he would work harder and be paid less on a private crew. Project cost to the taxpayer would be the same,except the private contractor would be pocketing the labor savings as profit. The DOT worker is just a smarter person. What is better for the economy? DOT worker will spend all of his paycheck,in the community,he has insurance so his wife and children don"t depend on welfare for healthcare,when he bought the Camaro he helped a local car dealer provide jobs for people,he payed tax on the purchase,a portion of which goes to the local economy. The contractor laborer making 8 dollars spends all of his check,foood stamps payed for by you and I make up the shortfall, He drives an old rusty pick up,probably bought from a friend or a used car lot,little if any taxable value. When his wife and kids get sick they go to the emergancy room where either the goverment picks up the tab orhe just doesn"t pay the bill. I will take the state worker any day of the week.
