First of all: if I really wanted to be truly sarcastic, I'd have written that differently. Sorry if that offended you.
Second: You completely deviated from the topic by making this about the private sector and the wages it pays, not national/international financial statesmanship. That's not within the scope of downsizing the scale, that is a whole another matter that has nothing to do with the topic. Silly, inadequate comparisons get us nowhere in a discussion.
