Politicians - the Los Angeles City Council
Does this hit your sympathy nerve or cause some other emotion?...
On an LAweekly blog, Jill Stewart writes:
"Not only does the City Council rake in nearly $180,000 a year, but they use taxpayer money for eight free cars per council member, and each of them employs a huge personal staff of 19 to 25 people. That's about 320 employees, costing Angelenos millions of dollars to support. Compare that figure to the White House Office Staff of 480."
