I'm sorry, but you're just plain wrong. In fact, you pretty much have the reverse of how it actually is. My uncle is a federal attorney. He makes $105k per year and is close to retirement. In the private sector it's common for starting salaries to be in that range. A lawyer with 40 years in a law firm is making a LOT more than he does.
Government employees are, by and large, paid below the average pay for their field.
