Ala Cheech and Chong?
Oh, them....no, I was thinking of congressmen in general.Some Clintons? I meant the Clintons, who do not seem to me to be honourable people.
Apparently the pay matches the quality of work these people have been doing.
Congressmen are sleeping in their offices to save money: 'I can't afford an apartment'
Bear in mind that they typically have families & homes elsewhere to support.
Ever live in DC & environs? It's spendy spendy spendy.
But I have no sympathy because none is needed.
Their offices are roomier than Mr Van (although certainly not as well appointed).
I'm sure that none are as well appointed as Mr Van.Some of them are. They range from down right luxurious to so-so...
Yeah, I don't think those 2 got it on with each other.
I've always liked that bit.I was kinda thinking in this direction;
That's a pure insult to people who are really and actually broke.I don't see what honorable has to do with it.
Clinton was talking about the campaign funds. Those were extremely low at that point in time. "Broke" was a bit of an exaggeration. But not much.

I think it's more of an insult to the government types saying "What part of broke don't you understand?" when they were giving out corporate welfare and tax breaks to the super rich people.hat's a pure insult to people who are really and actually broke.
$175k a year should be reduced. Half these people could barely get a job at McDonalds.
It's not a normal job where you interview for the position. The position isn't determined by the manager. The position is determined by votes and how much spin can be applied to get those votes.I feel the opposite. We need the position to be one people aspire to.
You want better teachers, you pay them more.

Blake Farentholt.Name one, specifically.
According to who? Republicans don't elect people based on credentials. Just who can tell them what they want to hear. And put a little panic mongering frightening language in the mix and credentials go out the window.Probably the toughest interview a person could face would be to run for public office.

I try to once a year find something on which we agree.I feel the opposite. We need the position to be one people aspire to.

Good idea!$175k a year should be reduced. Half these people could barely get a job at McDonalds.

Here it goes for 2018......
Higher pay would make sense.
- Commensurate with the responsibility.
- Creates a larger pool of applicants.
- The temporary (ideally) nature of the job means having 2 homes for most.
No, democrats vote for people qualified for the position. Usually based on intelligence or leadership skills. Think Obama. Republicans vote for people who tell them what they want to hear. They also vote based on looks. $weet $ister $arah Palin is another fine example. Michelle Bachmann too.You don't think that applies to any party?
Politics = propaganda/trickery.Good idea!
It would ensure that only the independently wealthy will become congressmen.
