I don't work for the private sector, though if I did, I would twice, perhaps three times what I'm earning now, but the offset is, I like the people I work with and and enjoy my work. Oh, and no, the private sector should now nor ever profit from our taxes. Big business, banks etc, have long been a part of the education system here, I can remember when the first automatic banking machine was installed on a university campus, folk said that it would be all down hill from there, depending your point of view it is all downhill. the same uni's food service are, by and large, run by fast food outlets, McDonalds etc....
