I suppose with the lower home prices there now those are pretty decent salaries, but around here
those are below median. Similar positions (fire Dept. on first few pages) are running $155,000 in Seattle.

Nobody cares...nobody cares. And we wonder why our states and country is bankrupt. The day everyone wakes up we will be finished. Over 100k for data entry. Please give everyone the rationale on that one.

I certainly care. After reading that I hope Las Vegas does eventually go bankrupt. Unfortunately, that is the only way to change the current system as in giving these government workers excessive pay, benefits and pensions. Videos like this below do put a smile on my face.

Across the nation, the REAL 1% are the public sector employees with their gold-plated pensions & Cadillac health care.

Some of the pay in Los Angeles is pretty gross. But at least housing here is expensive enough that there aren't public servants living in mansions. Even at $150K(which is executive level position in Los Angles...Division chief or similiar), that person can only afford to purchase a normal house(4bd/2.5ba, 2200 sq ft) in a distant suburb with an hour drive or a small house closer in.

However, some of those salaries...in Las Vegas, they could afford a ridiculously huge home.

That a public servant could afford this home:

2950 AUGUSTA Dr, Las Vegas, NV 89109 | MLS# 1137078

or this one:

2075 ALCOVA RIDGE Dr, Las Vegas, NV 89135 | MLS# 1210455

or even this one:

8795 LUFIELD RIDGE Ct, Las Vegas, NV 89149 | MLS# 1172729

is kinda disgusting.

Oh. You must not pay taxes. Lucky you. Either that or you lack any logic

Regarding your post, I am going to have to assume you do not eat, drive, have a place to live etc.... Since that obviously is not true, it does affect you regardless if you acknowledge it or not.
