Wife: "my husband only makes 170k, we won't be buying a 2nd home anytime soon"

[fukkyalifestyle]

being a politician back in the day wasn't even a full time job. it was a sense of helping the community while they also worked regular jobs during the day.

Even if he loses the election, he still gets that annual salary every year for the rest of his life. Now that is some REAL government waste.

How much of a raise would you need to give these clowns to deter corruption? And is that even a reasonable solution? You're saying that Congress is so corrupt they need a raise. If they are that corrupt do you not think they would take the additional salary and the bribes?

i never said they need a raise, i said that the reality of the situation is that the donor class looks at these motherfukkers like sheep to be slaughtered. i dont actually wanna give them more money i make 50 grand a year, anyone in congress saying 170k isnt enough can eat a dikk

washington is an absolute cesspool, that's never gonna change. i dont know what the solution is obviously i would prefer an effective internal affairs department that audits these scumbags every year. an IRS audit for every senator and congressman

175k huh???

She wants him to lose so he can jump in the DC swamp as a lobbyist where he can pull in 7 figures.

Yall believe anything these people tell you.:DrakeDucktales:

From 2016:

Cruz releases partial tax returns

For 2011 to 2014, Cruz’s campaign released two pages of tax returns for each year. The documents, like those released earlier Saturday by fellow GOP contender Sen. Marco Rubio — don’t reveal many details like which tax breaks he claimed or how much he gave to charity.

In 2014, Cruz paid 32.2 percent tax rate on $1.2 million of income, his campaign said. Cruz’s income was relatively steady for the last four years, ranging between $1.7 million in 2011 to $970,193 in 2013.

Cruz filed jointly with his wife Heidi. While their income totals were relatively stable from year to year, their sources of income fluctuated. The majority of their income came from wages in 2014 and 2013. But they reported about $1 million in other sources of income for 2012 and 2011.

When he was running for Senate in 2012, Cruz released full copies of his tax returns for 2006 to 2010. In 2010, he and his wife reported $2 million in income, up from $347,716 in 2006.

They been making 7 figures a year for almost a decade. But "I got to work 70 hours a week to get by" :DrakeDucktales:

Only a crook looking for hookups and bribes would take a job with that responsibility to pay ratio.

anybody remember when Mitt Romney's campaign and presidential hopes fell apart cause he admitted he was so poor at one point that he couldn't buy his wife a pony?


This seems something like that.

"we ate tuna helper. We used an ironing board as a dinner table! "

Mitt Romney lost when he said $250,000 was a middle class salary

Technically, he was somewhat right. $250,000 is closer to middle class (albeit UPPER MIDDLE CLASS) than it is rich but, considering the LIONSHARE of Americans are earning $50,000 to $70,000, it was very weird for him to say that.
