Senators get paid an annual salary of $165,200. That's chump change for most of them. No wonder they're out of touch with mainstream America.
I'm all for someone making as much money as they can. I'm a die hard capitalist and believe that capitalism, while not perfect, makes the most sense. Capitalism takes a human fault (greed) and turns it into a positive force. So, I bear no grudge against these people having their money. I do, however, think they are not competent enough in reality to manage the country. That much dough simply puts you out of touch with how the majority of this country lives.
I'm not advocating bank account limits or anything. Just grousing about how only the filthy rich seem to be able to afford to run the country.
