Reminds one of Kerry who fights for more taxes on rich then buys his big boat in another states to avoid taxes in state he represents. No different than so many actors but then Elite liberals see themselves as special from others anyway as always. Government has a history of paying its workers less than same job in private sector anyway and why they once organized became political which attracted those who set them; politicians.
maybe you need to do some resaerch as well. Min wage jobs are not and I will repeat meant to support families. How many people do you know that are trying to raise a family on min wage? I don't know one single person. BTW, most college interns today do get paid. This isn't 1950. Maybe they do not make a lot, but they do get a salary. There are exceptions to every rule.
Sorry, I deal in reality-not what is "meant to be" or "should be" or "could be". The reality is that Multi-National Corporations exploit labor all over the World. Of the 100 largest economies in the World today there are now more nationless detached corporations than entire nations of people. Wake up!
What you support is a global cabal of economic interests-where national borders mean nothing, and everyday more and more people join the ranks of the poor and exploited.
The average age of affected workers is 35 years old;
88 percent of all affected workers are at least 20 years old;
35.5 percent are at least 40 years old;
56 percent are women;
28 percent have children;
55 percent work full-time (35 hours per week or more);
Not a good example ;because I know many people who are not for marriage with any advantage for being married over single. You will also find democrats against same sex marriage as well as abortion based on their belief its a sin therefore not a thing they can support. There is a lot of sex many are against not from anything but person belief and repulsion itself.

The answer is a congressman can pay a staffer whatever they want but they cannot exceed a certain amount for the entire pool of staff.
False, each member is alloted 944,000 dollars, 18 full time employees, 4 part time and base pay is the same, its the raises that the congressmen has control over.
