[quote=Eugene]Dumanis is a lawyer with 34 years of experience. Gore manages a department with 4,000 employees. Care to guess how much people with similar skills/experience make in the private sector?[/quote]
Experience can be a reasonable argument, but show me the metrics such as effect on reducing criminal conduct, increased prosecutions and a reduced cost and increased public satisfaction with their leadership then I would possibly vote for a raise. It seems like they all want to put various issues on a public ballot, why not do it with their raises.
