Are you saying Dr. Fauci is not worth his salary, given what his position is and his length of service?

What is your point?

So?

Tell me you know nothing about civil service without saying you know nothing about civil service.

Did you know that, in every state in the country, the highest paid state employee is NOT the governor?

In five states, it is a medical doctor.



What's your point?

Government could not hire a lot of people with specialized expertise absent competitive salaries.

I mean, Fauci absolutely deserves that amount. He could make more at many high level research universities. I'm really glad he is paid that amount so at least we can keep him in the public sphere.

The POTUS definitely needs a higher salary. I agree with you on that.

...and how he is a "questionable authority", particularly under the circumstances that developed in late 2019 and afterward.

This isn't a fan club, but considering all the irrational foam blasted his way by the right, you'll need to be very fact-based.

"Does anyone remember AZT?"

This is an attempt to resurrect an old article in Spin magazine from 1989, which claims high dose treatments with the drug killed more than it cured.
