The justification for below-market salaries is that you aren't expected to actually produce anything and are almost impossible to terminate unless you commit fraud or harassment. This comes from first hand experience as a federal engineer for almost a decade.

My mother-in-law's first hand experience in handling medical treatment cases for VA for the past decade is that you're expected to handle more cases then you have the time to.
You're also expected to do so, while wading through a waist-deep morass of technological, beurocratic, and managerial stupidity.
In that agency, she can't just zone out and phone it in.
