The list of people working for the government making over $100,000 was published today on a C.D. instead of paper. The premier says its an effort to save paper, oppositions say its an effort to make the list look smaller. What ever the case there are over 10,000 more names than last year of people making over $100,000. This is a lot of extra money that is being spent in an economic recession. The premier says that the people with the names on this list says that it is an achievement that most people think that $100,000 is a lot of money to be making in one year. So what did the list say? Well at the top is Ontario Power Generation CEO and president Jim Hankinson making 2.5 million a year. While the reporter did say that the people that are making this much money have very important jobs, after all you can't leave a nuclear power plant in the hands of just anyone.
While I didn't know such a list existed but probably could of figured it out, I think that the this is an interesting thing to recognise people that make so much money. It is a good thing to know where our money is going, especially large amounts of it. The way I see it is that the C.D. is a way to save paper, It's a good thing that more people are making more money, although this is questionable in this economy. When this report came out I even wondered how it was possible that people are making more money than this time last year, and haven't felt anything due to the recession. Now I sort ok know where some of the Defecate dollars are going, this is the only thing that I don’t agree with. The government can have an infinite amount of money and doesn't care as much as some people do about where that money should be spent.
