Thank you, exactly my point.

godwins law does not apply when eugenics is being discussed.

Quote:
Godwin's law applies especially to inappropriate, inordinate, or hyperbolic comparisons of other situations (or one's opponent) with Nazis. The law and its corollaries would not apply to discussions covering known mainstays of Nazi Germany such as genocide, eugenics or racial superiority, nor, more debatably, to a discussion of other totalitarian regimes or ideologies, since a Nazi comparison in those circumstances may be appropriate, in effect committing the fallacist's fallacy. Whether it applies to humorous use or references to oneself is open to interpretation, since this would not be a fallacious attack against a debate opponent.


and furthermore no one on the part of the thread that i looked at actually mentioned nazis. you have been the first, ironically that means your statement has come back on you.

Autism Speaks... not my favorite group.

First is the "cure" thing they are trying to carry out. Autism can't be cured, because it isn't a disease. It scares the crap out of me what they were doing and saying about Autism. I'm glad my family isn't a part of that.

I don't see the point of dwelling on a cure if it is unattainable. Why can't they just accept us for who we are?



sad thng is that their are autistic people who want a cure :( i understand i guess but they need to realize even IF it can be cured they would no longer be themselves

Odd. You mean you did not look at the post before mine?

By that point, I was giving up on aghogday, as they had just justified Geri Dawson's salary by arguing that people in other "charitable" organisations rake off a similar small fortune. It goes into her bank... it is not for "the complexities of what it takes to run a charitable organization...". They frittered away $2,203,127 on "Administrative expenses". If that included the two big guns' salaries, the implication is that the other 198 paid staff got an average of $7,347 each. Can you live well in the States, on $20 a day?

Not sure where you are getting your figure of $2,203,127 from, but on their 2010 IRS form 990, they paid out $16,752,835 in total compensation on line 15, of that form which I link below Your figures for the CEO $391,892 and Dawson $456,420 were total compensation numbers from the 2010 IRS form 990.

From line 5 of that 2010 form 990 they list 238 employees and on line 6, 340,000 unpaid volunteers.

So the actual implication there is that the average compensation package for the other 236 employees is $67,392.

Not likely any of their employees are starving to death. The organization is based out of New York City, so for those employeed in the headquarters of the organization the cost of living, is indeed high.

Considering though, that they have 340,000 unpaid volunteers that provide support services for the organization worldwide that's an average of $49 annual per year for each person that provides services to the organization. Fortunately the volunteers likely have other jobs to support themselves.

As far as complexity of the organization the 340,000 unpaid volunteers gives one a real idea of just how complex and large the organization is, along with how well supported it is throughout the US.

Those 238 employees not only play a part in running a multi million dollar charitable organization with worldwide influence, that focuses on research, education, and awareness programs, but they are also responsible for organizing and directing the efforts of 340,000 unpaid volunteers.

The facts are clearly documented in their 2010 IRS form, linked below.

http://www.autismspeaks.org/sites/default/files/documents/990s/2010_tax_form_990.pdf

Qualifications required for the leaders of the organization are extensive, and this level of expertise is required to successfully manage an organization with this many moving parts.

Where is someone going to find an expert like Geraldine Dawson, to run a research division the size of Autism Speaks on the cheap? It wouldn't be realistic to think that one is going to be able to find these experts to work at less than the market value of their expertise, when they can earn more money in for profit organizations, than they can in charitable organizations.

Perhaps some perspective on the qualifications that Geraldine Dawson has will help one further understand what it is about her as an individual that sets her apart from others, and requires a higher rate of compensation for the level of expertise one must hold to successfully fulfill the duties of a chief science officer of a research institute/organization.

These are the type of qualifications required for an individual to head up a research institute, and they definitely don't come any cheaper than services by anyone else in the medical field, at least not in the US, where one can spend hundreds of thousands of dollars just on their education, to get a start in their career.

And as one can clearly see below the education, career, awards, professional associations, research published, and expertise, is clearly unique, in that one person could accomplish this.

It would be unrealistic to expect an individual like this not to be appropriately compensated, per the market rate among all other organizations that do what autism speaks does, as a non-profit research organization.

Yes, it's a really long list, but really big salaries are usually paid for really long lists of accomplishments, to gain the highest levels of performance, when expertise or the lack of it can be the difference between total success and complete failure.

No need to really even scan the actual accomplishments, just the effort it takes to scroll through the whole list, gives one some type of idea, what they are going to have to do in life, to eventually be compensated at over 400K.

The woman deserves more acknowledgement for her accomplishments, than someone who is just looking for a big paycheck.

You raised the issue of the BBB, so I gave a link to their entry there and took figures from that entry.

Apparently, according to you, Autism Speaks have reported one set of figures for their 990, but have somehow got the BBB to publish a set that does not tally with that.

IIRC the 2010 990 was a glossy magazine format, rather than there earlier straight 990 forms. The accounting figures were pretty hard to extract. I'll not be bothered to plough through that again.

I'd be interested to know under what heading they will tuck away their payments to Alex, this year.

The only point of the cut and paste, was to show what 400K will buy for expertise to head a research program, in the US. And that what she is responsible for is a great deal more complex than putting a paycheck in the bank.

The work that the individual has done in her career is indicative of the work she is doing now. Her credentials I provided makes that exceedingly clear.

The CEO at NAS in the UK makes close to the equivalent of 200K in US dollars, his background is in accounting though, not neuropsychiatric research.

He seems to be doing a great job, and rose up through the ranks of the organization, however he doesn't have the skills to run a research institute, nor are they needed in the organization that he is responsible for. Nor is the expertise he has, nearly as rare.

If that organization was running a global biomedical research program and was in need of the expertise of a Chief Science Officer, it is possible the individual would be paid as much or more than this CEO, simply because of the cost of the skill set required, along with it's rarity. It's the UK, though, so it's not likely it would be close to 400K.

The IRS form 990, is a standard government form that comes in only one format and is very different than the consolidated financial statement included in their 2010 annual reports which is in glossy magazine format.

I gave you the line numbers of the form specific to the facts I presented that are on page #1 of the IRS 990 form, that I linked. If you click on the link, it takes you directly to that page; the facts would be hard to miss.

The same total compensation figures of over 16M for all 238 employees are reported in the consolidated financial statement as they are reported in the form 990 from the IRS.

The 2.2M figure you quoted as "administrative expenses" from the BBB is termed Management/general expenses under the category of support services on in the Annual report, per autism speaks consolidated financial statement that they are responsible for as an organization.

The 2.2M figure is not in reference to the salaries of the general staff that work to support specific program functions in the organization. This is the way "administrative expense" is normally used as an acounting term.

The Management/General accounting line on consolidated financial reports of charitable oganizations, audited by third part accounting firms, is not part of the IRS Form 990.

"Administrative expense" a more general term that the BBB uses in reference to the 2.2M figure from the consolidated report, that is called Management/general expense under program support services.

Not likely that Alex is considered an employee of the organization, not sure which category of services that funding would fall under; there is one for for videos, but neither the level of detail for the salaries of every individual employee or every specific service paid for are required for disclosure for non-profit organizations for the general public.

I haven't seen where any large charitable organization provides that level of detail to the general public; it would probably fill several thousand pages, not likely anyone would even take the time to look at something like that.

Your point would seem to be that Mark Lever, Chief Executive of the NAS, a person qualified to run a large organisation, earns less than half of what Geraldine Dawson, a person qualified to do research, gets from Autism Speaks, an organisation far smaller (and more recent) than the NAS.

I think you made my point rather well.

For the most part, It was the representation of Kanner's Classic Autistic children that was responsible for securing funds and resources for Autism; it wasn't the presence of Asperger's Autistic children that accomplished this. In other words, the argument that i see floated around claiming THAT resources are given to Autistic children because they are cute kids is in error. Resources are being allocated to cute suffering children who are made visibly through parent advocates and their respective representative bodies.

The Big Autism Children Pie was brought in for Kanner's Classic Autistic children and Asperger's Autistic children got several nice moist select slices off of that pie because of their affiliation.

IF Asperger's Autistic children had been the sole representation of Autistic children, Children with Autism would have received very limited funding and resources.

The Autism pie would have been simply a dried stale slice with Asperger's Autistic children getting the crust and Kanner's Classic Autistic children receiving the crumbs.

Patterns are wonderful things.

Actually that is precisely my point. You are suggesting that the salary for the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Science Officer at Autism Speaks is too high. That's understandable if you are looking at it from the perspective of what CEO's of Charities are paid in the UK.

But one cannot compare compensation levels in the US and the UK as equal on average, because the UK pays about half of what the US does on average for both Charity CEOs and Chief Science Officers.

And, the information linked below shows that the compensation levels for Chief Science Officers on average are 50% higher in the UK than Charity CEO's.

Thanks for the link you provided, I got the same information from the NAS website, in determining the CEO's salary from the NAS in the UK, as close to 200K in US dollars.

I realize the NAS brings in much more funding than the US, approx.130M, and has thousands of paid staff members to carry out their mission of direct aid to individuals with Autism, in that country, along with awareness, and education services.

Unfortunately or fortunately depending on how one would feel about living in New York City, if the NAS organization was based there serving the US instead of the UK, the CEO could expect to earn close to twice the compensation that he does now in the UK.

In the US, per the median salaries I provided earlier in the thread, the median salary for a CEO of a charitable organization the size of the NAS in the UK, would be 378K per statistics from 2008.


http://www.mysalary.co.uk/average-salary/Charity_CEO_14338

Per statistics from the UK, the average salary of the CEO of a charity is 44K in US dollars.

http://www.mysalary.co.uk/average-salary/Chief_Science_Officer_11882

Per statistics from the UK, the average salary of a chief scientific officer is 64K in US dollars

So, per available statistics from this resource, UK Chief Science Officers make on average 50% more than UK CEO's of Charities.

Another selection of irrelevant statistics. I have no idea what you are attempting to prove by this final item.

There is no question that Geri skims almost 1% of the entire income of Autism Speaks, whereas Mark Lever gets 0.15% of the NAS's income.

Very simple, that on average the level of expertise required by a Chief Science Officer warrants 50 percent more pay than the CEO of a Charity, in the UK, per the available resouce quoted.

The NAS is not responsible for the largest global biomedical research organization for Autism in the World, as Autism Speaks is; the organization doesn't do science, they provide direct social support, education and awareness of autism, so the potential salary of a Chief Science Officer vs Mark Lever's salary is not one that can be compared, because he isn't responsible for global biomedical research.

There are non-profit research institutes in the US that generate much less revenue than autism speaks, that have CEO's that make more than the CEO of Autism Speaks.

One example is the Diabetes Research Institute Foundation, with Revenue of just 8M, the CEO of that organization earns 446K. That's 5.5 percent of the annual revenue generated by that organization.

It's the overwhelming majority of funding for their administrative positions though, because 7 percent of their total income goes to administrative expenses.

http://www.diabetesresearch.org/page.aspx?pid=362


And again, salaries in the US for an organization, the size of the NAS would warrant a median salary of close to 400K for a CEO. That's not an irrelevant statistic; it's directly related to the issue of why the folks in the UK that run charities make about half of what the folks in the US, that run similiar sized charities, do.

CEO's of large Charitable national organizations in the US, get paid alot of money. Keep in mind though that the population in the US is five times larger, and the UK is the size of Wisconsin, which means the outreach effort of national organizations can be much more complex. The number of volunteers directed by Autism speaks, 340K, is equal to 5.6 percent of the entire population of the UK.

I haven't paid attention to Autism Speaks in a while. After looking at their website, it appears they are changing. Some parents are claiming that they are proposing treatment rather than cure and some parents are upset.

I also checked out their ning page. They are including adults with autism. Maybe there is hope.
