Today’s Democratic Party believes the rich don’t deserve their wealth, they don’t pay their “fair share,” and that they should pay a higher tax rate to help out the country. But, of course, ultra-rich House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi doesn’t believe she should share the pain of dealing with the massive debt.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Thursday that she opposes a cut in congressional pay because it would diminish the dignity of lawmakers’ jobs.
“I don’t think we should do it; I think we should respect the work we do,” Pelosi told reporters in the Capitol. “I think it’s necessary for us to have the dignity of the job that we have rewarded.”
You can’t make it up.
