5. Fuck Johnson

6. Hahahahahah

   Teacher salary in America proves all this bullshit is by design.

7. If only he knew someone who could legislate higher salaries…

8. $174,000

9. That’s not tone deaf; it’s spitting in Americans faces.

   Someone needs to put up a bill to raise the minimum wage to match Congress. You know, to feed their families.

10. Oh, what about living within your means and all that crap about pulling yourself up by your bootstraps?. Do we need a handout now?

11. Yes, billionaires and their brood go hungry!!

12. The [average Congressman earns $174k](https://www.congress.gov/crs-product/RL30064), the [average American’s income is $62k](https://www.demandsage.com/average-us-income/#:~:text=The%20average%20annual%20salary%20and,a%204.38%25%20increase%20from%202023).

    If members of Congress can’t support their families on almost three times the average American’s income, then they should resign their positions. It is obvious they lack budgeting or financial skills and, therefore, should not approve or recommend government budgets.

13. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

14. What about red states frozen minimum wage of $7.15? They good?

15. So much for civil service…
