Why Illinois Is In Trouble - 63,000 Public Employees With $100,000+ Salaries Cost Taxpayers $10B


Illinois is broke and continues to flirt with junk bond status. But the state’s financial woes aren’t stopping 63,000 government employees from bringing home six-figure salaries and higher.



Whenever we open the books, Illinois is consistently one of the worst offenders. Recently, we found auto pound supervisors in Chicago making $144,453; nurses at state corrections earning up to $254,781; junior college presidents making $465,420; university doctors earning $1.6 million; and 84 small-town “managers” out-earning every U.S. governor.

Using our interactive mapping tool, quickly review (by ZIP code) the 63,000 Illinois public employees who earn more than $100,000 and cost taxpayers $10 billion. Just click a pin and scroll down to see the results rendered in the chart beneath the map.



Here are a few examples of what you’ll uncover:

  • 20,295 teachers and school administrators – including superintendents Joyce Carmine ($398,229) at Park Forest School District 63, Troy Paraday ($384,138) at Calumet City School District 155, and Jon Nebor ($377,409) at Indian Springs School District 109. Four of the top five salaries are in the south suburbs – not the affluent north shore.
  • 10,676 rank-and-file workers and managers in Chicago – including $216,200 for embattled Mayor Rahm Emanuel (D) and $400,000 for Ginger Evans, Commissioner of Aviation – including a $100,000 bonus. Timothy Walter, a deputy police chief, made $240,917 – that’s $146,860 in overtime on top of his $94,056 base salary. Ramona Perkins, a police communications operator, pulled down $121,318 in overtime while making $196,726!
  • 9,567 college and university employees – including the southern Illinois junior college power couple Dale Chapman ($465,420) and Linda Terrill Chapman ($217,290). The pair combined for a $682,000 income at Lewis and Clark Community College. Fady Toufic Charbel ($1.58 million) and Konstantin Slavin ($1.04 million) are million-dollar doctors at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
  • 8,640 State of Illinois employees – including $258,070 for Marian Frances Cook, a “contractual worker” at the newly created Dept. of Innovation and Technology. Further, there are the “barber” and “teacher of barbering” positions in the state prisons making $100,000+. Loreatha Coleman made $254,781 as a nurse at the Dept. of Corrections.
  • 8,817 small town city and village employees – including 84 municipal managers out-earning every U.S. governor at $180,000. These managers include Lawrence Hileman (Glenview – $297,988); Michael Ellis (Grayslake – $264,486); Robert Kiely (Lake Forest – $255,247); Kevin Bowens (Libertyville – $254,428); and Richard Nahrstadt (Northbrook – $250,248).
In total, there is roughly $12 billion in cash compensation flowing to six-figure government workers when counting the 9,031 federal employees based in Illinois.

Its comparable to a lazy ceo (which most are) making 8 times more than the employees who actually do some work ink the CEO.

We can boycott the company people of Illinois have no choice or move ..
 
Check out Ontario, the most indebted sub borrower on the entire planet. We are so screwed that all of the NAFTA renegotiations and America First demands is actually placing the entire province on a massive bubble. If that wasn't bad enough, Toronto now has the most overpriced housing market on earth as well. Include a massive individual debt load that is higher than Americans had in 2008, and you see where this is headed.

In short, we are done for due to clowns, conmen (and women), a corrupt police force in Toronto AND Ontario, and a driven Trump who wants to win for America. Canada and Ontario are going to lose and it's well warranted. The crooks. If only there were the same consequences for them as there are for the private citizens from coast to coast.

$100,000 a year is not that high anymore, especially in a state with a high cost of living

How many of those employees making $100K have advanced degrees and years of experience?

$100,000 a year is not that high anymore, especially in a state with a high cost of living

How many of those employees making $100K have advanced degrees and years of experience?


Once again a lefty shows how bad he is at math..50% of workers make the same or less then $15 bucks an hour..how many $15 hour an workers does it take to pay one paper pusher $400,000 a year? Around 12 workees..its unsustainable.

What do the salaries of low skilled workers have to do with the compensation of highly educated professional employees?


This is something you wish to hide? It has everything to do with it our taxes pay for those salary, you have them living like kings while the ones who pay there salary eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches ..


They don't produce nothing .
