<DIV class=plainMail><BR>Hi folks,<BR><BR>According to the latest form 990 that
ICANN has released:<BR><BR><A
href="http://www.icann.org/en/financials/tax/us/fy-2009-form-990-en.pdf";
target=_blank>http://www.icann.org/en/financials/tax/us/fy-2009-form-990-en.pdf</A><BR><BR>at
least (there might be more, e.g. "consultants", etc.) ICANN staffers were paid
$200K+ (see column 9 of page 46). Eight of those pulled in $300K+. At a
"non-profit". In a recession! You can compare the numbers to last year
at:<BR><BR><A
href="http://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/ga-200709/msg03017.html";
target=_blank>http://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/ga-200709/msg03017.html</A>
<BR><BR>and one can see a huge increase in wasteful spending, and overpaid
staff. Compare the top 16 to the prior year's top 5, and there's been an
explosion of wasteful spending. It makes one wonder how many other ICANN staff
are sitting below these "top 16" with $100K+ salaries, hidden and unaccountable
to the public.<BR><BR>Jones Day was paid over $2 million last year (page 67).
Compass Lexecon earned $307,165 for their garbage economic reports which had no
statistical analysis whatsoever! (also page 67)<BR><BR>It's clear ICANN is
living in an alternate universe if they think the above is acceptable or sound.
It demonstrates their lack of accountability to be able to feed at the trough,
at the expense of the public who pays all the bills. The need for serious
cutbacks and slashing of this wasteful spending is obvious, unless you are
drinking the ICANN Kool-Aid. <BR><BR>Sincerely,<BR><BR>George Kirikos<BR><A
