@ChrisMayLA6@zirk.us @alex_p_roe@mastodon.world But what about salaries coupled to the national average salary? Let's say they can get 2x the national average. If, due to competent economic policies, the economy and salaries expands, the politicians get increased salaries, if the economy contracts, they get lowered salaries. When the people suffer, they suffer, and when the people prosper, they prosper. Sounds very democratic to my ears.
