I highly doubt they are Charles Schwabb when it comes to investing. Thats proof we do need a "Great Reset" in this country. Though for a different reason.
who's making $300k, other than the president?
congressman are $175k, and leaders are $195k, while speaker is $225k.
cuomo is at the top of govs, making $225k
Someone here on this forum who used to be involved in politics once said that they spend their entire times after getting elected raising funds for the next election campaign this fundraising is where they get most of their money you think it all goes to the campaign? Also some of them set up these phony charitable organizations (cough...clintons...cough) and most charities have parasites at the top that skim off a lot of money.
Speaking as a former elected official, once you're in office investment opportunities open up that are unavailable to others. And they're all perfectly legal.

Yep, we have the "best government money can buy".
And that in one simple line sums up why the United States is in so much trouble today

I know he is not a politician but look at Hunter Biden. A fregin jukie that can make millions because of who his daddy is. These politicians enrich themselves and their families. BTW that goes for both parties. The Republicans and the Democrats are both slimeball parties.
These days, politicians are wealthy before they get to office save for a few.
Otherwise, they get involved in the stock market, they get an enormous amount of money for speaking fees and attending other events locally that don't have to do with their political "job."
Those speaking fees are part of the grift. Look at Bill Clinton’s list of paid speeches. Nobody was paying him because he’s some kind of motivational speaker and they actually want to hear him talk. They are paying him for access.
Our government’s access is for sale. I’d say ban all speaking fees, but they’d find another way to sell access.
They just know stuff the rest of us have no access to. Just look at those 2 senate candidates from Ga. Insider trading.
Martha Stewart goes to jail, it's a perk for politicians.
We all are fed up with DC, but keep electing the same ol same ol congressmen and senators. Go figure. We put all our hopes for reform on the POTUS who can't do jack without the house and senate.
Lie by the Democrats. Perdue and Loeffler were cleared. As was Diane Feinstein of California.
Both Perdue and Loeffler were already rich. So is Osoff.
Now the Clintons, Obama and Biden are a different story. Obama and Biden got rich after leaving office. The Clintons didn't wait until they left.

Not all of them. Whitewater, for instance. They just couldn't prove it.
