said by nasadude:you mean the govt should freeze wages on upper level govt employees or the govt should make companies freeze wages of their "VP and above" employees?
if you mean freeze upper level govt wages, you wouldn't get enough money to pay raises at lower levels - the top salary in a govt agency is for SES, which tops out at around $160K or $180K.
There are a bunch of federal employees paid more than that. Example: President, VP, Supreme Court justices, Cabinet officials, and a number of House/Senate members. And of course many contractors are paid more. And yes I would consider it a technicality that you want to freeze government employees but not government contractors.
