Ever wondered how much of your tax dollars go into Obama’s staff’s pockets? Here ya go!
Here’s an article with more details on who some of these people are and coincidentally enough most of the highest paid are from… Chicago!
No recession for Obama’s 454 White House aides: They’ll make $37,121,463 this year
Holyshit! Prison psychiatrist in CA made almost $840k last year!!! http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-07-05/california-prison-psychiatrist-paid-838-706.html
The figures show that the 10 highest-paid state employees each earned more than $500,000 in 2010, for a total of $6.2 million. All but three were doctors or dentists for the Corrections Department. Joe Dear, the chief investment officer at the California Public Employees Retirement System, ranked seventh with a gross pay of $548,142, the data show.
It’s absolutely insane that these people make this kind of money off of tax dollars. Heads should be rolling…
Well, if they did not command these types of salaries, none of the top minds would want to serve in public office.
It is about the service to their country, right?
More like servicing their country.
Plenty of ‘good minds’ willing to work for 1/4 of what they’re paying the one Prison psychiatrist in CA.
why does an african-american president need a director of african-american media?

this is even spiffier. It boggles my mind that someone can be behind on their taxes. My “dude” charges $100 and I cant use an EZ form…I guess April 15th done sneaked up on them.
Wow… These assholes steal your money at gunpoint and with the threat of imprisonment yet somehow feel they shouldn’t pay into the same system for their pet projects.
Get a rope.
I’m reminded of the (historically untrue) quote of Marie Antoinette saying, “Let them eat cake!” while guests of Versailles wined and dined the night away…
Soon the filthy washerwomen will be coming, and it will be a terrifying time for everyone.

after reading the titles, I can understand the “need” for a few of those positions as the office of the presidency is what it is…But, those are some hellaciously good raises. So, who can spell tone deaf? o-b-a-m-a?
