According to government data, the nearly $6 million in confirmed taxpayer dollars that Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber was paid from 2009 to 2014—about $1 million per year—is roughly 24 times the average salary earned by full-time American workers in the same general time frame.

The boy seems pretty savvy on his calculations.
Wonder if there’s a Florida or NH condo in there somewhere as a tax residence?
