HELL YEAH !!!!!

Nope

They make too much.

The threshold value for overtime salary is currently $455 per week ($23,660 per year)

Starting in December 2016, the salary threshold to avoid paying overtime will move to $913 per week (an annual salary of $47,476). The Department of Labor (DOL) originally proposed a threshold of $970 per week ($50,440 annually), but the new rule reached a compromise based on the 40th percentile of income for salaried full-time workers in the region of the US with the lowest wages (currently the South).


The staff members in the house make more than the current threshold.

Ummm... you just proved me correct. Legislative aids and interns are below the current threshold, starting at $1,666 per month and $516 per month respectively. Thanks for doing the work for me!

What cost ? This is the house. How are there cost involved. The light bill maybe. Hell the GOP'ers are trying to override a veto. Something they can not do without Dems anyway. So if anyone is wasting time and money it's the GOP.

The light bill maybe.

so by your own admission, the progs are increasing global warming, adding to the deficit, and causing [perhaps indirectly] the unnecessary deaths of countless whales!

why do progs hate whales?

:cool:

At the lowest level possible and what would they be doing there anyway ? Beside and congress person is given a budget they pay their staff from. So it in fact does not cost more since they would just shift money from other activities to pay overtime.

The personnel allowance is part of the Members’ Representational Allowance (MRA), which the Committee on House Administration appropriates every year. It is exactly the same amount for every member

They probably didn't at that time but if they did they have each have a budget to spend as they choose. If they thought this was the way it should have been spent then it cost the taxpayer no more or less. It is an issue that only concerns how they allocate their allotment.

This is pedophile politics. The fantasizing middle-aged Demwits want to be admired by the young Sandernistas and Occupuppies. They also have visions of the braless Free Love teenage sluts who protested this way back in the 60s.

Sound more like your fantasy than what went on. Funny thing is some people only want the got to stand up when they think it about something (usually money) that they somebody else in getting when they should have it.

Other believe they should stand up when it's just the right thing to do.

Thank god. Who wants to watch a bunch of former hippies grandstanding? Who want to watch a bunch of former hippies hijack a terrorist attack to further their own political agenda?

Who buys any of this shit? They have not proposed one thing that would have prevented the attack in Orlando or even the mass shooting in CT. Pretending to do otherwise is a complete and utter disservice to those that were killed.

You wanna know why a guy like Trump is so popular? Because the country as a whole is sick of this shit. More empty rhetoric like the #"bring back our girls" (by the way they never did bring those kids back, but who cares, the # made everyone feel better about it o_O) this is the same stupid shit.

"Hell yeah"? Really, how simple could you possibly be?

Million more watched it than ever watched Cspan the network that owns the cameras.

Trump is popular among racist rubes who understand even less about how the govt runs than he does.
 
I was looking forward to the cops coming in swinging batons and cracking some heads.

So when Republicans shut down government, it costs money. When Demcorats do it, it doesn't. Got it. :rolleyes:

The Dems didn't shut down the Government - Ryan held votes during the bedlam. Votes to override an Obama veto, which failed.

Quite amusing.

Wow, Ryan must be desperate trying to trick the base into thinking he's not Obama's personal bitch. Quite amusing indeed. ;)

It was strategic. The GOP did not want to have public debate on the veto, because Obama vetoed a law concerning fiduciary duties of investment advisers. So Ryan and his crew figured they would have the veto override vote during the sit-in bedlam, with no debate, and viewers couldn't even tell what was going on.

Because they actually shut down the entire federal govt.

Which federal agency had to tell people to stay home from work because of what the Dems did yesterday ?
