We should call anyone proposing pay cuts hypocrites if they won't live at the pay they propose

[CreekDog]

I don't normally say stuff like this, but this is in response to a theme I've noticed:

those who propose cuts often say that those who are getting cut are getting too much or are overcompensated somehow. but nearly all of the people saying this make double, triple, or quadruple (maybe 10 times in the President's case) the people they are suggesting make too much (or need to adjust to "reality").

:rant:

1. the people saying that are very "important" people...

They work harder, make better decisions, know what's best for us, and deserve millions, if not billions, of dollars compensation because if they aren't paid that much they will take their awesome intelligence and talents to an employer that will pay what they are worth.

Does that explain it?

2. it explains why they don't see the hypocrisy
