    I’ll take it a step further. They can have the federal minimum wage and all that entails. If the lowest american can live on $7.25 an hour with no other benefits then so can the leaders.

    And before someone says it, annual audits on every one of them. If they find a buck on the ground and spend it without reporting, it’s jail. They wanna put us in a panopticon, they can join us.

        That’s the beauty of the surveillance state they want, it looks at them too. Don’t even need to destroy the world with data centers to automate a system that monitors every government employee as a financial inquisition.

        If you want to be in charge, you forfeit your privacy.
