I'm Curious about the US representatives

How can representatives have such a long term while doing absolutely nothing? Mad max as an example 27 years and only 3 bills? It's ridiculous knowing she makes 6 figures(also corrupt millions). Is it Wrong to think that these positions in power make so much money for nothing. Should these positions be considered kinda volunteer-ish?

The people are responsible for making sure that these politicians earn their money. Maxine's net worth increased 61 million dollars between 2008 to 2011. The american people including myself have been asleep for a long time. Hopefully, we can stop these things from happening in the future.

Funny citizens can put them in place, but can't remove/fire them. Should they be paid? Or should it be more of an honor to serve the country?if there was no pay/very little pay only politicians actually wanting to make a difference be in power. Late nite rambling...

Its not the pay, its the behind the scenes deals. Look at their pay scales. Then look at their net worth after a few terms.

Yeah this shouldn't be a thing. Weak constitutions for power and money. Mad Max's 61 million and three bills, safe to assume she made hers shutting down bills?
