One should apply for Kapnga's job. The Government is supposed to be representative the people. How many minimum wage earners are in the Assembly?

Plus the $88 per diem for every day they are in Madison on state business. Oddly enough, the salary is almost exactly what the Milwaukee County supervisors make for representing almost exactly the same number of constituents (see my other post from yesterday). My feeling about the supervisors is that if we want people from all walks of life doing our lawmaking, we have to provide enough for the nonwealthy to support their families while they spend the time necessary to do the job right.
