That Greenwich Maserati

Greenwich Time’s Neil Vigdor pursued his quest for the owner of the $125,000 Maserati parked, with a town employee tag, at Town Hall and discovered that it belongs not to a BET member but to an employee of the Social Services Department. It strikes me as incongruous that someone working in Social Services, presumably a department chock-full of compassionate people, would feel comfortable spending this much money on an automobile but other than that, it’s his or her money and she’s free to part with it as she pleases, don’t you think? Still, I think I know where we can look for salary give-backs when next we need them.

    As long as legally earned, why should public dictate how others spend/save own funds?
    Lots of academics and nonprofit workers have trust funds or higher-income spouses
    Many doctors (both competent and incompetent) earn >$1MM/yr…

    While plenty of do-gooders come from wealthy circumstances (which is why they can afford to be do-gooders), this is a really strange combo. I wonder what this person is like to work with?

    Exactly my thoughts, Anon at 4:45 PM.

    I too detect a bit of a disconnect between CF’s self-described libertarianism and his above opinion: a tad of hypocrisy lurks therein methinks.
