POOR , POOR WISCONSIN WORKERS, TERRIBLE SALARIES

SALARIES:

I received a list of salaries for some of the mistreated Wisconsin school teachers and public employees who have been in the headlines the past couple of weeks. This first list is the annual average salary including benefits (for a 9 month contract for the teachers):

The source was WTMJ for this information according to the correspondence I received.

It is my understanding that at the present time the employees do not pay anything toward their retirement and the State government is requesting that the employees contribute 5.8% toward their generous retirement.

I retired from New Mexico under the State Public Employees Retirement program. At the time of my retirement I was contribution 16.3% of my gross salary toward our retirement system. I am certainly not anti public employee by any stretch of the imagination but having the taxpayers pay 100% of a public employee’s retirement is a bit far fetched.

I can only hope that the Wisconsin Governor stands by his guns and does not give in to the George Soros funded demonstrations.
