Kat, everyday Americans should be FUMING MAD. 😡
"Legislators" getting $170,000 per year while most of America works three jobs just to make 1/3, 1/4th or 1/5th of that, and still can't keep up with the monthly bills!

AND THAT'S NOT COUNTING THE MONEY POLITICIANS EARN FROM THE CRIMES THEY COMMIT!

WHAT WOULD AMERICANS DO WITH $14,000 PER MONTH? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Our Elderly can't even retire, forced to work minimum wage just to eat!

Our fraudulent government (really foreign-corporations posing as our government) has been living high on the hog for far too long.
A BIG PIG TROUGH!

Cut it down by at least 95% I say, essential functions ONLY and ONLY with pay commensurate to the national middle class average, so ONLY people who really want to serve in government take the job for Honorable Reasons not Greed.

NO Self Enrichment, only an average ho-hum wage for all GOVERNMENT positions. SERVICE TO COUNTRY IS AN HONOR, and that should be the real compensation. PRIDE!

I know I am FUMMING mad! I have worked since I was 15. Started out as a Candy Striper at the local hospital under a CETA program. Then a waitress at 16 until after college then an auto mechanic. Parts store Manager, Loss Prevention Manager, up to District Manager. Back to college, became a nurse and worked until I got totaled out by a semi in my car in 2014. I started drawing disability on what I paid in after fighting them for 2 years because of severe injuries and nerve damage. Because of a SOCIAL SECURITY error, someone stole my identity and started drawing social security IN MY NAME for 18 months!! WHO KNOWS why they didn't catch it sooner but they sure the hell didn't and I HAVE TO REPAY A "BACK PAYMENT!!" for it! Did you know you can't sue those BASTARDS? SO long story short I now get $584 A MONTH after paying for Medicare A, B, and D. CONGRESS STEALS FROM US then let ILLEGALS come in and get THOUSANDS a month, THOUSANDS in food stamps AND FREE RENT! AND THEY WANT A RAISE? KMA!
