then they shouldn't take the job if it isn't enough money. i can assure you that a lot of americans could live on 174K a year. that is basic economics 101.
Too bad you've never taken such a course. Keep in mind that, if elected, you will need to maintain two separate households, one of which will be in the very expensive Washington DC area, and you will need to travel back and forth between there and your home district many, many times per year, and you will need to have a wardrobe that goes well beyond business casual, and you will need to work 14-hour days, various of which will be spent listening to the idiot rants of your most stupid constituents.
Isn't it odd that when CEOs of banking and health insurance companies rip people off for BILLIONS for doing a lousy job Repugs wet themselves, bow down, grovel and say "ohhhh, my lord and masters EARNED it"....but if they think a person of color who is a Democrat gets a tiny tiny fraction of that for a raise it's "Off with their heads!"....
They completely ignore ALL the Republican congress people , federal and state who are Republican and HAVE voted themselves raises....Oh no, only black Democrats have ever done that! What a bunch of racist buffoons!
This is not surprising. Most of those listed have the ever present entitlement mentality.

Here, ladies and gentleman, are people who in other threads try to deny that there is any racial factor at all in their insane hatred for Obama. So believable...

I hate to inform you, but pointing out the fact that 14 out of 15 who voted yes, happen to be minorities, is not racism.. Its a FACT... live with it!!

How many Goldman Sachs people were hired by 0bama, and work in and around his administration? 0bama rushes in to hire these people, after bailing them all out. So do not sit their and get all partisan.
