| rdfs:comment | - Some, such as outgoing Rep. James Shaner, D, Lemont Furnace, will collect more in retirement than they did on the job. Mr. Shaner, whose salary is $66,172 this year, will collect an estimated $71,000 a year in retirement. That's about $25,000 for his 12 years of service as a legislator and $46,000 for his 33 years as an educator. Mr. Shaner, who underwent heart surgery last year, did not run for re-election.
