Salaryof retired US Presidents .............$180,000 FOR LIFE
Salary of House/Senate .......................$174,000 FOR LIFE This is stupid
Salary of Speaker of the House .............$223,500 FOR LIFE! This is really stupid
Salary of Majority/Minority Leaders ....... $193,400 FOR LIFE! Ditto last line
Average Salary of a teacher ............... $40,065
Average Salary of Soldier DEPLOYED IN AFGHANISTAN ....... $38,000
Think about this.
Nancy Pelosi will retire as a Congress Person at $174,000 Dollars a year for LIFE.
She has retired as SPEAKER at $223,500 a year. PLUS she will receive an additional $193,400 a year as Minority Leader. That’s $803,700 Dollars a year for LIFE including FREE medical which is not available to US...the taxpayers? She is just one of the hundreds of Senators and Congress that float in and out every year!
Those figures are just not true to the extent that the salaries are not “FOR LIFE.” Depending on length of ‘service’ Members of Congress have a generous pension plan, but not what’s shown here. If anyone claims these figures are accurate, please give a source.
Pfft, spare me
When teachers start getting paid for results, let me know.
Yes, the other aspects of your post are valid, teachers and their unions can kma.
My cousin and her husband are retired teachers in the New York area.
They EACH receive a pension of nearly $100,000 per year.
