The footnote “Public sector employees account for less than 1% of the top 1% of the income distribution scale” deserves to be more than just a footnote, given the frequency with which we are told that public sector employees earn more than their private sector counterparts, that the public sector is too large, and that all public sector pay over 21k *must* be frozen, while private sector pay at the top, in the millions, apparently cannot even have its rapid rise slowed.
