From the comments:

Yeah, because we wouldn’t want to attract the most qualified person for the job? Air traffic controller for 1/8 of the prevailing wage (of what? a non government air-traffic controller?)? Fucking idiots. Every. Last. One. Of. Them.

I went back to look at the original article and the blacksmith doesn’t even get $56K/yr, it’s $29K + “$27K” in “benefits” (if total benefits are used).

That seems like shit pay.
