How much do you pay your Mayor?

What to pay the Mayor?

I don’t care if the position is defined as part time or full time … it is full time. There is only part time pay.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel recently ran an article on the pay of their suburban Mayors.

Quite frankly the pay is all over the place as is the PT/FT designation.

I have heard all the arguments about how people should serve for little or nothing. It’s a bunch of BS. Those expounding paying a pittance have never served. It is easy for them to demand others not get paid.

To answer the question “How much do you pay your Mayor?” … Not enough in my opinion.

Same with Council, County Board, Whatever.

But as always I will listen to other views in the Political Philosophy class and via written comments.
