You are describing a series of choices that have noting to do with the cost of hiring someone to do her job.
Compensation is set based on scarcity, replacement cost AND the value of the work performed. For public sector positions, it is impossible to quantify the value so we fall back on the other two.
Whether or not someone had a bunch of kids or bought a too expensive car doesn’t enter into whether their pay is fair.
