“Do we believe that Congress and its staffers should pay the highest marginal tax rates, regardless of income; that every congressman must have served in the military to vote to declare war; that congressional offices have to carry out any and all reporting requirements and regulations they impose on a particular industry; and so on?”

I am good with that too.
Its also important to note that these staffers are not fresh out of college kids like so many seem to believe.
For instance, One of John McCain’s former chiefs of staff left his office to take a job as VP of Lockheed Martin. She left LM and is currently back in DC as the GOP staff director for the armed services committee.
