That is the trick with owning a business. You always drive a company
vehicle, with a company gas card. You have a lot of business meals and
business trips. At a certain point you don't need much salary to live
fairly well.

Yep. Welfare for the wealthy.

If all you want to do a punch a clock 9-5 M-F then all you should expect
is a paycheck.

If only it were that simple.
Anyone in the civil service can tell you that cutback after cutback has
left most departments streatched to the limit with more & more demands
being placed on the '9-5 worker'.
At least that's the way it has evolved up here since the 80s.

So those civil servants are finally doing some work and earning their
paycheck?

They sure do up here. (at least the vast majority do)
