>From Tony Markos:

Contractors make the bigger buck? Recent headline
story for Cleveland Plain Dealer: NASA Glen to axe
500 jobs - averaging $75 K for Federal employees and
$40 K for contractors.

Also, research the on-line "Contractors Handbook".
That site does a detailed $ comparision of contractor
vs employee. Bottom line: It is very hard - almost
impossible - for a contract worker to come anywhere
near the compensation of an employee.
