Is there any information as to total compensation packages for US Senators? |
|
and house members? I'm just curious how much they are paid, what their benefits are, do they pay income tax, average work week, etc.?

Like a group of frat boys in an old movie. And I guess their families are as bad. I read once that the Bush boys were just bad when their father was Vice. Gets to a point that they are the only ones that can wear silk and purple. How silly can a group of people get? And they vote it for them self.
