High Court salary

A good article on the wage of High Court judges vis a vis other professions is over at Crikey. It summarises some findings of the paper by CoreEcon blogger Andrew Leigh and Oxford Economist Tony Atkinson.

My favourite quote from the Crikey article:
"If you listen carefully, you can hear the tabloids winding up their outrage engines on those overpaid and out-of-touch judges and bureaucrats."

(The outrage of the comments thread suggests he's right.)
