    One of the problems is wages. A lot of state/county jobs, say grade 8s, offer very low wages and right now private sector around the state recently bumped up wages 2+ dollars an hour (manufacturing/packaging/warehouse type jobs) in preparing for a hike in minimum wage. State jobs still haven’t accounted for it.
