    I sure hope so. My wish is that they curtail presidential powers to an almost ceremonial level. No immunity, no pardons, no executive orders. While in office and direct or indirect income other than the presidential salary should be relinquished and full public availability of tax and business records will be a requirement.

      I think that no government worker should be making anymore money than the minimum wage. Watch the minimum wage suddenly become liveable then.

        No elected government worker… I’m not down with bridge and safety inspectors or air traffic controllers making minimum wage, no matter how “just” it seems - for a millisecond. Let the judges and elected officials have the minimum wage - WTF, it’s not like they’re not already millionaires by the time they get into office.
