I'd honestly be okay with the raise if they simultaneously banned stock trading while in congress. $174K/yr does seem low for that job. But we all know they get in it for the kickbacks, insider trading, influence peddling and other financial benefits that aren't in the best interest of the US.
We have to stop Joes inflation. Not possible with this level of spending. Democrats have financially sickened our country, we must fix it!It's an astronomically high amount of pay considering what they've been doing to us. They should have to live in a dorm while Congress is in session and they should be paid what a captain in the military is paid. They should also be on VA benefits. No special treatment. It's supposed to be public service not having the public serve them.
All government spending is taxation. Every last penny. Even when we aren't being taxed to pay for it. You could be argued it is especially the case in those circumstances and every dollar spent right now is purely deficit spending. We have to stop it!
The richest, unelected Karen in the history of the world should be giving his money to the cause, not taking it from arbitrary programs that he finds too woke. The optics of this filthy mogul destroying programs/departments that benefit the lesser advantaged will not be pretty.
