The problem with talking about the Congressional Salary question is what a lot of the representatives highlighted, people focus on average salaries for positions that require far more than the average talent and have demands more than the average person.
I also found it interesting that there was a committee under Democratic leadership to try to fix how Congress works, but there didn't seem to be that push once Republicans took over, even if some Republicans saw a need to fix how the House works.
