The Mississippi Superintendent of Education makes a salary of excess of $300K. The educational system employees keep crying for pay raises but the administration is paid higher than most in the nation. They are siphoning off the money for personal use and the students suffer. The political structure for education has more power than do senators and congressmen in Mississippi and abuses its power with regularity.
Big government run amuck. This guy isn't even the state Superintendent, he's superintendent of one of hundreds of local school systems siphoning billions from the economy. It really is a tragedy, talk about wealth redistribution. Taxpayers are in effect keeping small communities afloat now that the only employer is the public government - no more manufacturing in NY - too many regulations.
