Federal Salaries

Just some food for thought from thebudgetgraph.com:

• Salary of William McGuire, CEO of UnitedHealth Group: $124M
• Salary of Leslie Norwalk, Head Administrator of Medicare/Medicaid: $143,250
• Salary of CEO of Walmart: $17.5M
• Salary of Postmaster General of the USPS: $173,000
• Highest paid federal employee, Army Football Coach Bobby Ross: $600,000
• President’s salary (perks aside): $400,000

And just to add some perspective, the USPS would be the 20th largest company above Meryl Lynch, if it were private (revenues of $78B).

Medicare/Medicaid has a revenue of $565B; UnitedHealth Group has $45.4B.

Football is a game.

The president rules the free world (more or less).

Painful.
