I am appalled at the $60,000 pay raise that World Bank President Wolfowitz gave to his girlfriend (Patronage flap roils World Bank, Boston Globe, April 13, 2007).
He seems to have little or no sense of proportion. According to Oxfam, over a billion people live on less than a dollar a day. That sixty thousand dollars could have had a big impact on a small fraction of those people.
