THIS IS A BIG REASON WHY PHILADELPHIA IS GOING BANKRUPT. YOU CANNOT JUSTIFY TO ME ANY OF THESE PEOPLE ACTUALLY EARN THEIR PAYCHECKS.

LOWER LEVEL CITY WORKERS SCAM THE TAXPAYERS ALL THE TIME.

Chances are, these people make more than you do.

Ah, tax season. It’s that time of year when you’re reminded of how much (or how little) you make and how much of it you give away to the government. Well, with the per capita income in Philadelphia at just over $20,000 and the median household income at a paltry $36,000, I thought it would be a good time to see just how much money our local government officials and workers earn for the work that they do (or don’t do, in rare cases.)
Here, the 100 highest-paid employees in the City of Philadelphia, who collectively account for $14,790,649 of your tax dollars each year, assuming that you’re not one of those Philadelphians who cheat on their taxes. (Consider that if the city collected what people owe in Business Privilege Taxes alone, it would pay all of these people for 26 years.) No,District Attorney Seth Williams’s $75,000 party planner Monique Wescott didn’t make the cut, but guess whose department is the single biggest salary sucker on this list? Yep, the District Attorney’s. DA Williams has more people (and cash) on here than any other branch of Philadelphia government by far.
