1. Yet, they still receive income boost when average workers wages are still stagnant and their performance running the country abysmal with exchange rate of record 161 yen to 1 dollar US.

2. 25mil to do nothing of substance is crazy. And they can vote themselves raises

3. And i can barely afford a fucking apple

4. Income raise above our country’s financial issues…..hemmm

5. It should be Performance based . But to be honest 200k a year is a bit low for a first world country

6. That’s 155,250 usd at today’s exchange rate. This is the average of total personal income, not salary from the government. The top income was 4,637,583 usd.

   Not that much: US Senators and Congressmen get 174,000 usd in salary alone. But of course, their total personal income varies enormously from near billionaires to Lauren Boebert…..

7. Should Fire all of them

8. That’s not their diet salary but rather their income from business interests and investments.

10. Doing fuck all and gettin 25 mils, no wonder they don’t care the living standard is deteriorating.

11. Glad to see politics are fucked up in every country at least

13. 25 million is not that much.
