People gripe that their leaders are "corrupt" and then offer from zero to next-to-nothing stipends and wonder why the government is full of only wealthy old white guys.

people hate hearing this but it's 100% true, creating a huge pay gap between political leaders, their staffs, and other elites is a recipe for corruption. of course the flip side of that is taxes on the rich should be jacked way the hell up
The Mayor of New York only makes $260k. I bet there are police that make more than that in NY with overtime.
We need to pay elected leaders more money and stop pretending it's some sort of calling. They're managing hundreds of billions of dollars in investments and millions of people's lives.

There's been a lot of talk about the higher ups and national groups who did and didn't endorse local candidates and "what that means."

I'm not saying the Republicans are grossly incompetent nazi thugs, I'm just saying laying off 2.2M, starving 45M, and stopping payments for contracts worth 24% of annual GDP isn't going to end well for any party in power in any nation at any point in time of history.
