SMH,   maybe if we paid congressmen a living wag we'd get better quality.  

Why not just give them minimum wage?  Do you really think they pay for anything anyway?  They get money for almost everything, plus a salary.

Honestly I don't think the pay for members of congress is out of line.   Its the "favors" they get to accept we need to crack down on.

 Anyone of any quality can make 175k in the private sector dealing with way fewer assholes. 

 

Apparently not.  Have you seen all the people on here who got stimulus checks?  I think you mentioned you got one......:snack:

Stimulus was available to $198k,  more than what a senator or congressman makes. :news:  

America is a terrific place,  you can make well into 6 figures pay less than 15% in income taxes and still get a check regardless of your  income in 2020.

Should have been prorated.  $5 deduct/$100 over 198K joint or 99K individual.

I didnt think we would get one to be honest we were both scratching out head. We just said "Thanks Trump" and spent it towards a new garage door.

stimulus was 100% to 150 then phased out to 198 (family).  that is the same as the new one. 

100% to 75 and phased out to 99 on a single.   

 

I had no kids young enough for me to get the kicker,  amazing how 18 -21 year old dependents get fuck all but if they are 16 or less you get stuff.  Kids are way more expensive at college age.

Same here.  The only thing that was true is our daughter who’s a college freshman fell into the group that was overlooked and didn’t get a dime.  No biggie for us but I’m sure it stung for many.  Not sure if an adjustment will show up at tax time or not.
