I'll give him that if he gives up round the clock security for life which he signed back into law.

Unlike Senate Republicans, he actually does his job. It should come out of their pay.

Much like over here in the UK, I find it ridiculous that ex-members of government have a pension equivalent to their salary whilst in office.

Lets assume that each election cycle, 50% of the MPs are swapped out, that there are 200 MPs, and that the standard MP's salary is £64K (I'm largely pulling these numbers out of my arse) - that would mean that every election cycle the an extra £3.2 million of tax payer's money is being spent.

No wonder we have an escalating deficit.

All presidents and government employees deserve nothing more than the minimum wage, if not absolutely nothing at all.

Don't forget all the expenses that are paid for being a president during their term of service! So, if a president is frugal enough they could pocket a large share of their salary.
