I don’t really understand your comment. The original concern was that if workers in a private company knew each other’s salaries, there would be particular problems. I am claiming that those haven’t appeared in my experience with public salaries.
You have named many problems with working in public service. That doesn’t seem really relevant, though; I certainly am under no illusions that this is a perfect environment, just that salary transparency is not disastrous.
I'm saying salary transparency problems don't appear in the public sector because there is no social basis for them to appear. And as a corollary, that even when this aspect of possible inter-employee strife is removed, that people in those work environments still find ways of warring against one another. So why would you think adding an additional anxiety-inducing way for people to relatively rank one another in the private sector would lead to anything positive?
