#5 Even a freakin' assistant professor gets a better travel budget than a Congressman (hyperbole off). Seriously, what do we expect from a bunch of people paid less than $175K per year, when they have to maintain 2 residences, master innumerable policy issues, and work 365 days a year? This is pitiful, they run the most powerful, prosperous country the world has ever known, and earn less than an owner-operator of a typical McDonalds. Pay them a million a year, give 'em another million a year for expenses, and neuter anyone who accepts a penny from anyone for anything.
