You're not getting it. It's about this:





You think that's not a motive?

Air Force One, the Secret Service details, Health Care, Retirement and other perks aren't to be sneezed at! Once retired you can earn a $ Million at speaking engagements like Bandar Bush did!

The Clintons did not even own a house when Bill was elected POTUS, look what they have now!

Over the years I've always heard so many people railing against government officials pay, how they should take voluntary cuts.

Evidently it's just me, but I feel that a nation's highest offices do deserve a good deal of esteem and dignity; I can't bring myself to care even if they decided to quintuple it.

Give them all the esteem and dignity they can handle. Go cheap on the salaries though! Government pay often included some pretty good health insurance and a nice retirement. If they really need more money have them pay for the insurance and retirement.

Agreed,

Ive always advocated a system where MPs pay rises should be exact the same percent wise as economic growth.


Results driven.
