Letter: Too much news about high salaries

The Columbian
Published: June 1, 2012, 5:00pm

I don’t think it’s appropriate or in good taste to flaunt the salaries of the big shots who make so much money, be they CEOs or actors or politicians.

We are struggling every day to make ends meet and possibly have a little left over and to read about these millionaires with their houses and boats and other luxuries that we can only dream about is just hurtful and unnecessary. Please be kind to one another. Show some compassion. We are all trying the best we can.
