You think someone is overpaid at $137k a year? You sound poor.HFNY said:He already gave City Union Employees 12 weeks time off if they have a newborn to secure their votes in November (cost of roughly $3 million) but this takes the cake. He also has a "Homeless Czar" making $137,000 in salary alone.

That's what, double of the national average? Then you factor in it's a government job so the benefits usually equal close to the salary.2001400ex said:

Spending four times the national average on a job that doesn't need to exist is overpayment. -
Depends on what they're doing. IMO, that's way too much for a parasitic city government tool, especially since I'm sure that most of that salary will follow him/her/whatever the proper pronoun of the day is, in the form of a pension until death. But if the people of Seattle are okay with it, more power to them, they're free to burn as much money as they want. If enough rational people decide to LEAVE then maybe the city will have to curb its spending, or not, city government defaults aren't a new thing.2001400ex said:

It's what liberals do!

He might be overstating the benefits but the mean average pay in Seattle was $29.33/hr in May of 2015. Without factoring in overtime pay, that's about $60,500/year. So yes, $137k with better benefits for a homeless welfare management position is being overpaid.2001400ex said:

So you are saying the average Boeing worker making $29 an hour has no benefits and the person at he city has $137k a year in benefits? Um no. Their benefits packages are comparable.greenblood said:

I don't know the person, if they are a slacker then you can bitch about it. But $137k isn't an absurd amount of money for a qualified person. In a city where kids fresh out of college make $100k in IT. -
Seattle is one the most fiscally strong cities in the country. It's bond rating is AAA. It is not defaulting on any obligation now or in the future. It's citizens, some of the most highly educated and successful people in the world, are free to spend tax dollars however they choose. You chose to marry your cousin, and participate in the dirt-eating economy in the confederacy.Southerndawg said:
