Becoming Inspector General Would Be a Pay Cut

Ihe salary and bennies of the Inspector General of the post office is in the news. I see he only makes a little bit more than the CEO of CPH, even though the post office has half a million employees and a quarter million vehicles. Talk about over-compensation at CPH, and talk about making seminarians pay for over-priced books so McCain can buy $3000 cameras and go on big trips yearly while other people have to save for ten or fifteen years before they can afford transatlantic trips.

What's missing in CPH's salary and benefits package is what the pension and medical plan will be after retirement. If that's factored in, and one assumes they retire and live to a ripe old age, their actual take may be twice as much as their yearly salary and benefits. And you know that McCain will live forever since only the good die young:
