Does anyone else find this chart disturbing...?

Anonymous said...: It is amazing by showing a CHART, the way to fire people up.

What is the real difference?

Chart Private BIG BOSS $107K
Chart Government (Top 5%) $112K

That is only $5,000 or $96.153 a week, and most of these GOVERNMENT HAVE TO FRONT SENET ESTIMATE COMMITIES, to JUSTIFY their BUDGET.

That is less than a CARTON of Cancer Sticks a week more LESS after TAX, please!
