I do resent the implication that only non-govt based organisations can be 'cowboys'.
I do too (although I'm sure that wasn't what was intended). From the examples I've heard the worst cases of poor conditions, bad pay, and enforced self-employment (see other thread), particularly in relation to those on the lowest rungs of the ladder, have been dished out by Council and University units. If private companies have to cut their costs back to the bone to compete with that it's hardly surprising.
