Ayn Rand meets a patriot

[Duff Miver]

FRESNO, Calif. (AP) ? Some people give back to their community. Then there's Fresno County School Superintendent Larry Powell, who's really giving back. As in $800,000 ? what would have been his compensation for the next three years.

Until his term expires in 2015, Powell will run 325 schools and 35 school districts with 195,000 students, all for less than a starting California teacher earns.

"How much do we need to keep accumulating?" asks Powell, 63. "There's no reason for me to keep stockpiling money."

This sort of thing will make azzbob's and doggie's heads explode.

"Our goal has never been to have things," Powell said of himself and his wife, Dot.

No doubt that kind of thinking will get him labeled a "government-tit-sucking socialist".

So the guy has been grossly overpaid his entire career and will now get paid
what he is worth, no wonder CA is 30 BILLION in the hole as far as an operating
budget and 500 BILLION in unfunded liabilities-UNION pensions

It figures you would obsess over how much Powell was making rather than the fact that he's giving most of it back to the school district for the next 3 years.

And you wonder why Chad, Duff & Sponge have you on ignore?

When was the last time someone on Wall Street gave back their bonus, let alone most of their base salary? :shrug:
