Abstract

The government of Pakistan is facing a growing financial challenge due to the high number of nonproductive government employees. Politicians pride themselves on placing their favorites in the public sector knowing that the taxpayer has no say in the process and will pay the cost. Yet no one looks at what the cost of this dirigiste politics is! Not only are most political employees mostly employed in positions where they are not productive, they are also a drain on the budget.
