Perhaps you are right but I did say percent of revenue derived from government contracts applied to wages. Most companies do not derive a large portion of their income from government contracts.

With the government employee unions now at all levels of government, the government employees are in a position to vote in the people who will then raise their pay. Also puts the politicians in the position of using the promise of pay increases to raise money from those unions and employees to get themselves elected easier. That is a cycle that also must be broken.

I would expect that if a “services rendered escape clause” were in that all of the transfer payments such as welfare would suddenly sprout some small work requirements that would make them services rendered too.

All academic anyways as nothing like this will ever happen.
