Comment on Min wage in most states is so sad
Asetru@feddit.org 3 weeks agoI get the idea behind it, but this very much would backfire in that only the rich could become representation.
Not only the rich but also the corrupt that would then sell their voice to the highest bidder.

Good thing neither of those are the case in the current system!

The point is, these changes wouldn’t help any of those things.

I agree, and maybe not on their own, but combined with other changes, maybe. Eg. Build dorms and have them stay there when in DC, owned and paid by the state.
I’d like to see draconian controls and transparency on their finances during their time serving and a few years into it.
