Exactly. But they know they will all be sitting on boards when they stop getting elected so that's why they are doing this.

exactly. It's all reacharounds and corruption.

When you say "other sectors" you probably mean major corporations. Yes in major corporations CEOs and such get paid obscene amounts of money for failing constantly and then being fired with golden handshakes. That's not something we want to do with our public sector.

These people are not CEOs, they are not running anything. They are just sitting on a board that meets at most once a quarter for a couple of hours. Nobody should be getting paid 90K for ten hours of work a year.

From 90,000 to 162,000 is most certainly not reasonable. That's an 80% raise. Who else gets a 80% raise?

Honestly at this stage I'd rather have the Chinese than the Trump goons.

FBI is supposed to operate inside of the US only AFIK. The CIA and NSA are the ones supposed to fuck us.

See how butter and lamb are so cheap because we make so much here? It will be just like that.

given the kind of pain and suffering they have inflicted on the public with their austerity regime it seems like they could talk about other things than road cones.

I can't even imagine the kind of a mindset that would get upset because cones are too close to each other.

What exactly does "too many" mean in this context? Is there some rule about how many metres they should be spaced out?

And the fascists moves they keep making to undermine democracy and move the country to a Trump style rule.

What is their beef exactly? That there should be no road repair or that the road repairs should be done without cones?
