Federal Government employees have their pay publicly visible, at least many of them. Some Universities do the same. I'm not sure why this is so mind-blowing for some.

Also, keep in mind that they clearly set the opposite expectation about privacy with their employees and (from what they say), cleared it with everyone first.




Given the fact that federal employees are paid by tax payers (the employer) then the tax payers should know how much they are paying them.
