    What We Pay: A Gannett Wisconsin Media investigative team report

    • Jan 4, 2013

    This Week: UW System, coaches salaries and technical colleges: The compensation of public-sector employees has dominated much of Wisconsin’s political and economic discussion during the past few years. But what’s been lacking in that discussion is a way to compare what those employees earn in various places, in various circumstances.

    “What We Pay: Your tax dollars and the salaries they support” attempts to give you a way to make those comparisons, so that you can be better informed about how your taxes are used. Special section inside: www.postcrescent.com/WhatWePay
