    Congress House Speaker Mike Johnson says we should have sympathy because Congress isn’t paid enough — so we should “allow” insider trading just so they can take care of their families.

    Fuck you, Mike Johnson, and every so-called “public servant” who thinks public service is a get-rich-quick scheme.

    @linux
    US Speaker of the House's base salary is $223,500.

    US House Representative Minority Leader's base salary is $193,400.

    All other US House Representatives base salary is $174,000.

    This is only base salary, and does not include benefits (medical, etc.).

    They also get a Members’ Representational Allowance (MRA) "to support Representatives in
    their official and representational duties."
    MRAs range from $1,849,149 to $2,088,499, with an average of $1,928,107.

          @linux FEDERAL MINIMUM WAGE IS $7.25 per hour because you entitled oblivious pompous Congressional assholes set that wage for regular Americans. Speaker's wage = $107.45 per hour. If Mike Johnson can't make it on $107.45 per hour, he can't be trusted to lead the House.

            Imagine going to your doctor and he assesses that you need an MRI, but if he authorizes that MRI then his HMO might earn less profit, and in this instance his salary is linked to the profits of that HMO. So he is incentivized not to authorize tests that might reduce your pain and suffering.

            Welcome to the GOP run Congress.

                      @linux clearly, they need a second job. As a cashier at chic filet.

                      They hardly work at the Congress job. They have plenty of time to take orders, etc.
