A Radical Idea on How Congress Should Be Paid

In an earlier post I said that members of Congress and other elected officials should have to live on the minimum wage, but now I think this does not go far enough. They should have to live on the minimum wage for tipped workers. They would receive tips based on how well they serve the people they are elected to represent. Any funds donated for their election should be put into an account where it could only be used for that purpose, and if they use it for personal purposes they should have heavy tax penalties, They also should receive the same benefits as temp workers, because their jobs are temporary. It is time to stop pampering elected officials.
