How much can you earn working for the Iranian state?

That question is trending online in Iran, after the payslips of several employees were leaked online and published by several media outlets.

They showed not just inflated salaries, but what appear to be bonuses, interest-free loans and significant overtime payments. In one instance, a bank manager at a state bank was shown to have received £50,000 in one month.

By contrast, other public servants - including those who identified themselves as teachers, nurses and journalists - have published monthly payslips showing some of them are paid much more modest salaries of £300 a month or less.

The paragraph I liked the best:

Some Iranian Twitter users also debated the issue tongue-in-cheek. One tweeted an infographic featuring the monthly income of several world leaders with the following quip: "Obama has sent over his resume and is seeking employment with a bank in Iran, once his presidency ends."

More seriously, who can doubt that both the present and the past clearly show that the further past limited government one gets, the greater the shafting of the average citizen?

This trend is clearly at work in the US, right now.

Types of leaks you hear right before people start disappearing or having accidents.

Rumor floating is that Ayatollah Khamenei died. http://www.debka.com/newsupdate/16818/Unconfirmed-reports-that-Ayatollah-Khamenei-has-died

Debka is a notorious source. I just happened by it while cerfing the web.

How much can you earn working for the Iranian state?


The other question is: How much can you make working for President of the United States and Secretary of State? Answer: Ask Bill and the Hildabeast.

As a matter of fact, ask anyone in elected (or appointed) office in any level of government.
