If you ask me, congressmen should have their salaries capped at $75,000 a year. Thus if they wanted to earn more money congress would have to shorten the durations of its sessions while its members worked real jobs, delivering pizzas and painting houses. They could all benefit from a little more humility, and the rest of us would benefit from a congress that spends what little time it has focusing only on the most important issues.
Of course for that to happen congress would first have to provide funding to geneticists attempting to grow functional wings on laboratory pigs.
