Politicians dont get paid till unemployment is below 2% and the average median income per household is above 60k annually. I mean Hay if we are struggling to stay alive so should they. this is a reasonable demand. They are all rich already and some of them get a free house with a swiming pool and helicopter pad what do they need another 150k for. If the country is in the red they are not doing there jobs too well and when I dont do my job well my boss puts pressure on me to do better. The same should apply to the. Balance the buget or you dont get payed

Pretty interesting when a "Public Servant" makes more then the general public huh?

Here's another economic genius. A 2% unemoyment rate is below the naturally occurring rate at full employment. And guaranteeing 60k per year minimum wage ensures that you will never get unemployment below 9%. Please read a book, any book. I suggest Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith.

They'll just stop working, pocket their money, and never fix unemployment.
