We seem to be having a hard time equating a $170K salary with the word “huge”. Maybe to Snow, who made much more as a propagandist for Fox Noise, $170K is a pittance. Then why then did he take a big pay cut and accept the job as professional liar?
It may be easier for us who earn only five figures to think of it in terms that the commoner can relate to: Why would you leave a cushy $80K job posting your insane opinions on public message boards and eating Velveeta straight out of the box to take a $25K/year job scraping dried up wads of gum off the bottoms of seats in the subway cars? Don’t tell me it’s because you admire and respect the metropolitan transit authority and have long dreamed of cleaning up those sticky rail car seats for them.
Really.
