Here's how overtaxed we are

Pity those poor deputy-ministers... because we all know... if you're a middle class working stiff with a mortgage and a couple of kids, making 40 thousand bucks a year... your life is just a bed of roses.
-- THUNDER BAY, ONT. -- The number of high-ranking federal civil servants receiving a special bonus when they retire from the "stresses" of running their government departments has more than tripled in the last decade.

The bonus puts an average of more than $23,000 a year into the pockets of those who qualify.
If $23,000 is the bonus, what obscene amount of money do these people get in salary and perks?

And the sheeple get sheared yet again.
