They want another $34,000 raise to “cover meals, housing, and travel.” WTF? Granted, they haven’t had a raise since 2009, but they make $174,000 a year, which is 93 percent more than the average American salary, and they only work 117 days per year. Many of them are millionaires and own lots of real estate with multiple streams of income. It comes to an extra $15 million a year.

That money could be going to free lunches for children, right? And health care.

On that, we can agree. Anything but paying them more.
