They hardly work at all. It's amazing how powerful simple propaganda can be - phrasing for example. They call their paid vacations "recesses" and Americans don't even pay attention.
As If legal insider trading isn't enough of a perk - they can have a working dinner and chomp on a $300 meal on the lobbyists dime. And they travel to Paris or London or wherever for free. They pretend they actually go to lectures on climate change when they sightsee. Meanwhile Evil Corp is greenwashing and their execs are laughing.
Is this effectively a 6 week paid vacation?
They get this constantly.
Ideally it supposed to be so they can go home and meet with their constituents, but that never happens. They’re afraid of us.

Yes. They work so hard getting bribed, I mean wined and dined by lobbyists, until then.
