The chief administrator of Bell, a city of about 37,000 residents, earned $787,637 a year. President Obama earns $400,000. Bell's former police chief earned $457,000 — $150,000 more than Los Angeles' police chief. Both resigned last week after their salaries were revealed.

Yes, I saw it on the news-the whole town showed up angry as hell.

For awhile they actually thought they could convince the town it was okay, lol. Of course, they ended up getting their resignations.

Unclear is whether they will collect retirements based on those sky-high salaries, which are not too far behind the salaries themselves.
