Plus they have days off, holidays and sick leave with pay and pretty much can’t or won’t be fired.
Sounds a bit mixed up~

Seems pretty normal actually. They aren't looking at stock prices or investors getting profit and returns.

It's expected that they wouldn't worry about the stock price. Living wages matter more The scenario and system is expected. Completely different scenarios.

Who knows? I am not familiar with their retirement plan. Hopefully it's a good one. Lord knows more people need them in this country.

The average annual pay across the entire federal workforce is $106,382, according to OPM, reflecting the skew toward white-collar jobs held by highly educated people. Half of all federal workers make between $50,000 and $109,999 a year. Relatively few (3%) make $200,000 or more, while 8% make less than $50,000.

He got the order of magnitude right.
I mean, lets give him credit for not claiming it was 1.5 million.

Glad that Team Uniparty (the one that hates ‘regular Americans’j is pleased that the average government employees make ~33% more than the average private citizen. Not included in the compensation differential is the superb federal government employees health insurance benefit. That costs those chump ‘regular American’ taxpayers another pound of their flesh.
While we’re at it, America needs more well paid government employees posting amongst themselves via government paid private intra-department communication networks on how to optimize their tyranny experiences. Refer to the NDA.

Bills estimate is more accurate if you add in benefits, etc

But Bill needs to remember his golden rule. Saying that Federal employees and others are/were so imperfect, as you & me are, so let’s not get so uppity & pious & worked up since it won’t change matters you don’t approve of since it’s like yelling against the wind.

Yeah but what is the median wage?

Also, what’s the living wage? Both are good questions if you actually want to bring math into this discussion. Be prepared, though. I teach stats.
And if you really cared about income inequality, you’d be looking in a completely different direction. Comparing broad workforce averages to a niche group with specialized jobs is a classic false equivalence that's probably right up there with your sources.
Honestly, I don’t expect a response. I think you already know your post is misleading.

We need more immigrant H-1Bs and unskilled immigrants to suppress wages

That’s how the Uniparty elites bring about ‘equality’ in America.
