How many organizations do you know of that spend 70-80% of their income on the salaries and travel expenses of the people who work for the organization and NOT the membership? Salaries in AMA are $3-4 million a year, are they not? If you know the answer to this question, and are not just guessing, please tell us. When I wrote Mr. Cherry years ago, he told me salaries were $2.5 million, and that was back then.
