Awe poor congress members...174k a year how do they ever survive? Living paycheck to paycheck my ass, sounds like living past your means to me.

[stevelkinevil]

Yeah its tough to pay your bills when you live in a multimillion dollar home, wear $5000 suits, and drive a $200,000 car. Poor bastards.

I for one want to start a fund for them, breaks my heart.

This article makes me fucking sick. If Steve get's re-elected, the people in his district are fucking retarded. He had to give up his family business? No, dickhead, you didn't have to give it up. You chose to give it up. How dare this sorry excuse for a man bitch about his job. I'm sorry times are so tough for you, Mr. Congressman. But if times are so fucking hard, maybe you should just quit. You're a GD public servant. SERVANT. That means you have to make sacrifices for your country and its constitution, which you swore an oath to. It must be pretty fucking tough getting paid $174,000 to decided whether you're gonna vote yes or no on something. While the rest of the country wishes it had a job, you're complaining about "only" getting paid 3.4 times as much as the lucky bastard that still has a one. Where does a shitfuck like this get the balls to complain about his security when he and his ilk vote to send our men and women overseas to fight in two wars? Fuck this guy.

If I may borrow a line from Maxine Waters, Steve can "go straight to hell".

Wow! Great rant...until you quoted Maxine Waters. I thought I raised you better than that.

However, I agree. They can all go piss up a rope. I say we lower their pay to about $14 per hour. $12 per hour in the Senate because they have a longer contract and a little more job security.

Best response to this ever:
The Tea party responds with "we just though she was inviting us to her district.."

If they don't like the pay, they can just resign, there are plenty of real Americans that would appreciate that paycheck....

I work for .mil. I was given a one-time $300 allowance to buy my work uniforms. I rent a 'just-ok' house because there wasn't anything available for me on the installation.

I make ends meet. Then again, I've never had a case of the 'keeping-up-with-the-jones'. I drive a POS 1997 Jeep. Everyone to my left and right (at work) drives a BMW, Lexus, or some other manner of fancy car.

Everyone that thinks you can't live well on a meager wage, is wrong.
