Someone emailed me the following, figures detailing the pay packet for American Presidents. All figures are in US dollars. Traditionally, the president is the highest-paid public employee. President Bush currently earns $400,000 per year, along with a $50,000 expense account, a $100,000 nontaxable travel account, and $19,000 for entertainment. A mediocre amount, in my opinion, when comparing to CEOs with similar responsibility. What do you think? Comment bellow. (Be nice!)
