I'm embarrassed by the fact that Nancy and the Obamas (Clinton's are the worst) are multi millionaires with their $200k a year salaries. How does that happen?
I'm so embarrassed by the fact that our Congress has done nothing for years to solve DACA, or any thing. Our Congress is worthless. I like that someone is finally shaking up the stupid life long political arena. There should not be life long politicians. |

As for lifelong politicians, I disagree. I want an experienced surgeon, and I want an experienced politician. When you take away politicians' experience, the lobbyists just get more powerful. As for DACA, the House has passed a bill, including votes from both sides, but the Senate won't even take a vote on the issue. And we all know who controls the Senate. https://www.washingtonpost.com/power...dc4_story.html

I was in Montreal a couple of years ago when I saw Canadian parliament on tv and I remember thinking, "holy chit these guys are talking some serious chit and people think American politics is crazy or whatever.". It reminded me of Jerry Springer or that show MTV had for a little while called, "Yo Mamma".

George Washington through U.S. Grant made $25,000 a year. For GW, when inflation adjusted, that is $730K per year, at least according to this article. Also, from Wikipedia (yea I know the "truth" of the Internet) as a second source.

Did the quasi-political conversation kill the thread?

Possibly, although all I learned was it was good to have been President Taft when the Presidential salary reached it's peak of $2M per year in today's money.
I guess he was a "fat cat" in more ways then one.
