“Number of staff at scandal-hit Oxfam earning more than £100,000 has doubled in seven years”

- lippel82 6y agoThat's a bullshit measure! What number of people make more than an arbitrary threshold value does not say anything. Maybe all these people made $90,000 seven years ago, and $100,000 is just the new $90,000 in 2017. It's a large organization, I'm surprised they had only 11 people above $100,000 in 2017.

- goatinaboat 6y agoWhat point do you think you are making with this citation? The point that Oxfam these days is a business and reports like this are its product, and the metric of success is how much money these products make for Oxfam, not how much good they do. They technically still are a charity but they have strayed very far from their roots.
- dragonwriter 6y agoThe piece of data you cite has, at best, a tangential relationship to the conclusion you want to rest on it.
- matthewmacleod 6y agoCan you explain why you feel that citation supports this point? Because it doesn’t appear to be related at all.
