Guess how much the head of the NY Librarian makes? Guess again. You will be wrong.

NY Libertarian Governor candidate Warren Redlich asks random NY'ers on his campaign to "Stop Wasting Money." Over 110,000 State public workers make over $100,000, and his plan is to cap State salary at $100,000 to save over $2 billion a year.

The New York Library is pretty huge isn't it? I would imagine there would be a large staff along with security etc. He'd have to have a pretty hefty salary.

The best thing they could do is just privatize it.

The New York Public Library is a massive institution/building, and actually has a lot of cool stuff like a room full of extremely old and some ancient maps of the world.

In New York City, $100k/yr is not a lot of money when you consider taxes and that renting a 1br in a decent neighborhood is the equivalent to a $500k mortgage.

All that aside, I am sure there is a ton of waste there just like anything else the State runs.
