Otherwise, if she allows the guy to bring in another $150K, the guy should quite whining and hire a few more. Never miss an opportunity for a good libertarian rant, though, at the Journal I guess. Oh, and it should have read: costs 74K to give her 56K in pay and benefits -- 18K in taxes.

Sally may not bring in enough to cover her own pay. Instead, she might enable someone else to bring that much in. You know, like programmers do.
