With the very rich national $8.10 per hour average wage at WalMart
as goal for the lower wage slave/serfs to aspire to, Knights of Columbus Grand
Dragon Carl Anderson’s Religious Business Tax Free Cult is doing rather well
these days or at least in 2011 on IRS990 forms.
Carl Anderson – Supreme Knight - $1,488,682 Salary, Bonus, other
compensation.
This does not of course cover salary and expenses as a Board Member
of the Vatican Bank, a sideline so to speak to help earn a few extra bucks for the
electricity bill at home etc.
