Just like congress likes pensions, government healthcare and yearly raises ( voted on by congress conveniently enough ) for themselves but not for ordinary folks.

It's strange how the elites want the best for themselves but not for the masses.

Money for me, none for thee. Rules for thee, none for me. It's good to be king.

To get to the top you have to in some way be competitive. Many of these people are hyper competitive, and while it is great in many ways, it sucks because it makes a person always want more. They don't want poor people to be poor, they just want to have more money than their other peers.

Actually they have it rigged so that they get a raise every year, unless they vote not to.

Though I'm not sure how you imagine congress could give anyone else a raise, or a pension aside from government employees.
