When you apply for a job you tend to look at conditions and pay rate. So too for politicians.
Most ALP and a lot of LNP are being paid well beyond anything they could make in the cold cruel world.
Then there is the generous super, travel etc.
There needs to be a way that they get paid according to their contribution. This would require a neutral board of auditors that could weigh up the pollies worth. I agree that it would be next to impossible.
A different road is to pay pollies 1 million. This should attract more talented less ideological individuals except for the ALP of course who would fight each other for their spots.
Whatever the road the West needs a different type of politician.
