Obama really makes more like 10 million + a year. Add in the value of his benefits.
A Mansion to live in for free and another one to vacation to ( Camp david) whenever he wants. hundreds of servants and bodyguards. Private jets.
A huge pension with unheard of perks like free office space, postage, security, etc.
The PMG only makes 5X of an average mailman. ( Some) Regular hourly postal workers used to make over 100k by sucking up crazy O/T hours ( I'm sure that is gone, now ? ). Corporate CEO's make hundreds of times what workers do. The PMG's salary is not going to matter much. He makes Dentist / Lawyer/ Engineer type money.
I'm sure there are gov't employees that make over 400k, but they are classified. Obamas personal physician probably makes 400k.
The early presidents often died flat broke and owing monies.

post master general is running an organization that totally funds itself (no govt funds) and should be making as much as a CEO in the million dollar range
250k is a bargain... granted whenever they have trouble making profits they just raise the cost of mailing things

You are right, it does fund itself...but it's been in the red for the past few years.

Well if it made money it would have to be renamed UPS or Fedex and it would have cost you $4.99 to mail a postcard or a bill.

The Postal Service is the biggest scam going....those people barely have to drag their asses out of their vehicles, carry as much as they can fit in their hands, and work Mon-Fri. If the government truly wants to save money they should find a way to phase the damn Postal Service out...or down to 3 days a week max. Honestly, other than packages, when was the last time the postal service actually brought you something worth while?

Obama gets paid the MLB league minimum. But he is still a better pitcher than Zack Duke.

Seriously, for the safety of the country you need to have a high salary for the president. Should probably be much higher than what it is considering you want to avoid corruption.

Depends on where the warehouse is....if its in Sudan, Congo, Pakistan, or the like maybe....but for the cash he's talking it's obviously not in a vacation spot

Who the fukk mails postcards or bills...it's called online bill pay, e-mail, facebook, texting
It shouldn't exist and if it had to compete with UPS and FEDex without the help of taxpayer money it would be out of business.

like most government jobs you have a bunch of 30 year olds that are making $35k/year doing a better job than the 55 year olds that are making $65k/year and costing us $20k/year in healthcare.
frustrating, and the problem is that there is no incentive for the older guys to work harder, smarter, or better because they really can't get fired. so they tell the younger guys not to work as hard because it will make them look bad.
