174,000 ÷ 140 = 1,242.85
Translation:
they make 174,000 per year and they work 140 days, meaning they make $1,242.85 EACH WORKDAY. Some people don't make that in a WEEK

$7.25/hr is $15,000 a YEAR. So let's shut up about $174k, plus daily stipends, free healthcare, retirement, expense accounts, etc.

Congress should only get paid the median income of thier constituents. Let them see what a livable wage looks like in reality.

Federal minimum wage hasn’t increased since 2009. Federal minimum wage is $7.25 while in some places, a bag of Doritos is $7. Having to work an hour for a bag of Doritos is wild.
