Do you think it is time to vote all the bums out of Congress and the Senate, and replace them with new people? Anyone running should make a commitment to take the decision out of their own hands about their pay and raises. I think their incomes should come from their home state, not from Federal taxes. Each state legislature should set their income, with it being no more than double the average income in their state. Instead of our Federal Legislators buying fancy and expensive homes, the states buys a condo, which will be used by who ever is currently serving. Further, state legislator incomes should be paid by the counties they represent, and if they need a home at the state capitol city, the county will buy a place for them to live in. Incomes will be no higher than twice the average income in their county. Any money paid for the Representative to speak at functions, or other program, will go into the State or County coffers.
