House Democrats propose $4,500 pay raise for Congress

#5

Members of Congress make anywhere between $174k and $223k for roughly 130 days of "work" per year.

If anything, Congressional and Presidential pay should be cut. Take us to the Cincinnatus model, where the people who really want to be there will be there. Have it pay enough that people who want to be there can be there, but not so much that it makes members of Congress some of the highest-earners in the country. $100k seems right, given that it's in DC.
