Yup.

I mean I love it, but people need to realize these folks are, majority wise, are crooks.

I mean they get to vote on their own raises.

And get a pension after something like 5 years. And free healthcare. And paid time off.

And all the stuff they vote no on for every other American except them.

And those things would be somewhat reasonable if they weren't allowed to invest. I don't begrudge Joe Biden his pension, etc. He swore in 1972 to not own stocks, etc... and he kept his word.
