Whoopsie.

Just a simple mistake though. Sorry to pollute the election season with fraudulent talking points folks. Carry on.

Excerpt for the click impaired:
Two people were found to have filed multiple W-2 forms that made them into multibillionaires, an agency official said yesterday. Those reports threw statistical wage tables out of whack and, in figures released Oct. 15, made it appear that top U.S. earners had seen their pay quintuple in 2009 to an average of $519 million.

The agency yesterday released corrected tables that showed the average incomes of the top earners, in fact, declined 7.7 percent to $84 million each.

(I did post it in the original thread, but the timing makes the mistake itself a completely separate issue IMHO.)
