They probably make more than you with the insider trading and bribes and shit.

Totally man. No doubt. But I wish their legit income wasn't comically low considering what they do. I get this is not a popular internet opinion.

Force them to run a cameo with 10% of net profits being their salary and the rest going to taxes.

They should be paid well and forced to put investments into blind trusts.

They shouldn't be compensated at all besides transportation and housing costs.

If they were compensated enough so make insider trading or other distractions from doing their job with integrity I think it'd be a good thing. Crenshaw is just a loser whining liar and fricking sucks for other reasons.

Nah there will never be 'enough' to content greedy fricks. You have to enact laws to stop the insider trading and 'distractions.' If you paid some of these guys a million a year they'd still be making shady deals on the daily.
I do agree on principle that pay should be enough that a congressman can maintain a DC and home residence and pay their family's bills though.

Politics should pay enough that they can live comfortably, which helps discourage insider trading

Pelosi hit comfortable years ago and still inside trades on her deathbed. There's literally no amount of pay that will be enough to discourage a lot of people. There's an obsession with having more than the next guy, always.

I forget if they pay for their own flights but maintaining a residence in DC is really hard because of how expensive it is.
I think they should get dorms A la big brother but i don't think that would happen.

At least some house reps room together. Idk how common it is, but I've read several profiles of congressmen who lived in the equivalent of a 23 year old's bachelor pad but for junior congressmen.
It know it's quite common at the state level in California. Sacramento is expensive-ish and pretty remote so a lot of officials and staffers end up subleasing from each other.

It's a shame they have to struggle. I'm sure the inflation is crushing them.

Dude I'm 100 percent serious on the underpaid part. I make more than they do. Which is weird honestly. And yeah they get whatever shady kickbacks but still. I stand by my statement.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the 'low' pay offset by subsidized gold plated health insurance, travel reimbursement, and pension, etc?
checks yep
And that's without the loosened insider trading restrictions, or lucrative board positions at universities, think tanks, or whatever while employed. They're fine.

Isn't the travel reimbursement mainly for travel between their district and D.C., which they only have to do because of the job?
The health insurance and pension is nice for them, but I'd trade a higher salary for getting rid of the insider trading/board positions.
