They should set a private-sector comparable wage to the actual work they do, then index every congressman's pay to directly follow the purchasing power index of the dollar. Cost of living increases are out. The dollar declines in value, their wages decline.

Then the States should form their own collaborative IRS-like entity solely in charge of closely monitoring congressman wages and income. All income discrepancies to be highlighted and a panel of elected decision-makers from each State decide whether they will be investigated. This panel can only serve 2-year terms maximum.

I get that you betas' favorite thing to do is fawn over women, but this woman isn't attractive, especially with that monkey nose, and you're giving this diversity hire way more attention than she'd ever get otherwise
