Take on the Fauci salary

I just read that Dr. Fauci is the highest paid employee by the federal government making more than $400,000 per year and it seems he's a bargain. I always wonder how we can possibly get the best people in any level of government if we aren't paying anywhere near market value.
Dr Fauci is grossly underpaid in the larger picture when you have to consider what he could make on the open market. Unlike senators who often find ways to enrich themselves may past their salaried positions, it doesn't seem like public servants are quite as evenly paid as their private counterparts whether they are DA's, teachers or Dr Antony F'n Fauci
