Public Sector Salaries

I always look forward to these stats...look up your politician, professors & dean etc

Seems to be based on 2009 stats. Only those over $75k are reported.
http://www.vancouversun.com/business...ies/basic.html

Changes in those making 6-figures
http://www.vancouversun.com/news/cha...ngs/index.html

On a related note, gross earnings before overhead for medical practitioners: http://www.health.gov.bc.ca/msp/legi...uebook2010.pdf
my specialist is closing in on the 7-figure income before overhead....i wonder if he only takes home like less than 40% of that after taxes and overhead

Hope you guys realize that just because doctors make alot of money as a GP, it just means they are spending less time per patient. So chances of you getting a proper diagnosis the first time are questionable. Of course if you have to come back then they can ding you twice or more, why do you think doctors give such small prescriptoins?

The doctor gets paid by the government on a per visit basis. You are paying your doctor with yours and our tax dollars.

Doctors can only see a maximum of 50 patients per day and still be paid 100% for the patients they see. There's only so much advantage they can milk out of it by cranking through patients.

I get a kick out of people who freak over how much so and so makes. Stop the bitchin' and do whatever it takes to do what they do.

Doctors make a lot of money? Well, go become one.

I used to be pissed about politicians getting paid well and getting an awesome retirement package and benefits. No thanks. I'm not into selling my soul to the devil and prostituting myself by kissing ass and ugly babies.


I want my MTV.........

In my books, a primary teacher should get paid more than any of those two.
