here i’m CT, for ten years, the speaker of the state house of representatives was a liberal
democrat. Legislature is a part time job in CT, they all have full
time jobs. His full time job? He was a rep for the largest state employee union! He worked for the state employee union. So as a state rep, it was his job to vote on the size of his paycheck at his full
time job. No conflict of interest there!
