Government Salaries

I wondered what Government members make in a year.  It is pretty good money. This is what I came up with.

The House and Senate: They both make $169,300 a year. I wonder how they got so high. If they want to cut government spending they should cut it here. They could save $43,104,600 a year if they cut it down to $100,000. 


The Supreme Court: The Head Justice makes $217,400 and the others $208,100. Great job for life. If cut down to $100,000 a year they could save almost $1,000,000 a year.

The President: The President makes $400,000 a year. He also gets one of the best houses for free. It has 132 rooms, 32 bathrooms, a bowling alley, a movie theater, a billiard room, tennis court, jogging track, and a putting green. Also he gets a private retreat. If they cut his pay down to 150,000 they could save 250,000 dollars a year.

Those are the salaries of the main members of the government. They are a lot of money. I will use this knowledge how about you?
