Our politicians claim they are underpaid and the talent goes to private companies.
This ignores all the free accommodation (you still get paid accommodation allowance as a politician if you live in your own home), every expense is taxpayer funded (not just tax deductible), and the pension for life upon retirement so this is basically all disposable income.
These numbers are not comparable on face value to other taxpayers.
Lmao- Putin’s salary is the Russian treasury
Need to factor in the perks to be fair. The security details alone could be astronomical.
