More than 16,900 federal employees took home in excess of $200,000 in base salary in 2014, according to a partial database of federal salary data.
The information, compiled by FedSmith.com using data from the Office of Personnel Management and other agencies, shows the annual compensation for every civilian federal worker, save those at the Defense Department. The number of workers earning more than $200,000 represented about 1.6 percent of employees on the list and is up from about 15,000 who cleared that salary in 2013. It also makes up a slightly higher percentage of the employees on this list.
Most of the high earners worked as medical officers at the Veterans Affairs Department.

Words cannot express my disgust. So I'll post this:
Earned?
When I was growing up, the president of the United States had a salary of $200,000. I used to think that was a lot of money.
***Most of the high earners worked as medical officers...***
Which theoretically should be right for Cardiothoracic surgeons, anesthesiologists and certain other specialists and sub-specialists.
Will withhold judgment until there is a breakdown.
That being said, not at all sure we are getting what we are pay for, quality wise.

And given it was during Carter's time with a democrat congress, I didn't get paid for two months one time.

I see what you did there.
Bear in mind that any federal job which cannot reasonably be justified under Congresss constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers probably should not exist except for eqivalent, legal voter-approved jobs in the state governments.
".. watching porn is hard work..."
I see what you did there.
And the problem with this is...? Especially if the majority are doctors serving veterans, what the hell is wrong with that?! Would you prefer a quack treat them?
Well you take the President, Vice President, the cabinet, the Senate Majority and Minority Leader, all heads of departments and deputies and there you have it.
Heck, there's your problem.
And when I was growing up the President’s salary was $100,000.....hum.....now he makes $400,000 and all the free vacays he wants (or should I say the bucket ass he’s married to does)....
BIG GOVERNMENT IS CRONY SOCIALISM
Socialism Is Legal Plunder - Bastiat
The looting of the republic continues, unchecked
Pay up debt slaves children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and children yet to be born.
The legacy WE left ALERT!
I hope you’re doing well Johnny.
