OBSCENE POLITICAL LEADER SALARIES .node-article .field-name-link-line-above-tags{float: right;}.node-article .field-name-ad-box-in-article {float: left;margin: 15px 15px 10px 0;}.node-article .field-tags{clear: both;} Post date: 1 Jan 2015 - 3:06pm In this article I will take my readers into a deep dive exploring the world of remuneration for our political leaders. I will first list the salaries of the highest paid political leaders. Then I will attempt to come up with a reasonable number for what the pay grade should be for each of these political leaders based on factors such population, land size and GDP per capita. Table #1: Highest political leader salaries for 2014 Leader NameCountrySalary (USD)Lee Hsien LoongSingapore$1,700,000Leung Chun-yingHong Kong$530,000Barack ObamaUnited States$400,000Tony AbbottAustralia$345,000Michael HigginsIreland$340,000Stephen HarperCanada$296,400John KeyNew Zealand$290,000Angela MerkelGermany$283,600Shinzo AbeJapan$273,000Jacob ZubaSouth Africa$272,000 Table #2: Recalculated salaries based on population, land size and GDP per capitaLeader NameCountryPopulationLand Size (sq km)GDP Per Capita*New* SalaryLee Hsien LoongSingapore5,469,700710$55,182$281,389Leung Chun-yingHong Kong7,234,8001,104$37,955$190,021Barack ObamaUnited States320,085,0009,526,468$53,001$680,355Tony AbbottAustralia23,713,1007,692,024$64,578$423,523M ichael HigginsIreland4,609,60070,273$48,608$248,352Stephe n HarperCanada35,675,8349,984,670$52,037$395,708John KeyNew Zealand4,551,290270,467$40,516$209,836Angela MerkelGermany80,783,000357,114$44,999$309,349Shinz o AbeJapan127,070,000377,930$38,468$323,189Jacob ZubaSouth Africa54,002,0001,221,037$6,621$99,317 * Population / 1000 + Land Size / 100 + GDP Per Capita * 5 From the tables above, it is quite apparent that Singapore's Lee Hsien Loong is significantly overpaid. Barack Obama and Stephen Harper deserve a little raise, due to the large countries they manage. Note that the parameters I used are arbitrary, purely as an illustration to compare salaries paid to these political leaders based on well-known and easily-quantified factors. Of course you are welcome to run through this exercise with other parameters as you see fit. Regardless, any exercise of this sort would most likely indicate how overpaid Lee Hsien Loong really is. Using a common sense approach, politicians should serve their countries not for the sake of getting rich, but to improve their respective countries in areas of economy, security, education and poverty reduction. To take office and serve for the greater good is a privilege and honour, and it should not be measured strictly in dollars and sense for the office holder. Checks and balances are required in any modern democracy. This is sorely lacking in the city state of Singapore, which explains why the politician salaries are way too high. In the Western world, there would be public outrage at such exorbitant salaries for any head of states.
