Shouldn't the compensation for politicians be the very first thing to be cut during a shutdown?
Shouldn't they have some skin in the game?

I've said many times that they work for us, not the other way around.
It's high time that we start treating them like they work for us and not vice versa.

You might just offend the "help" if you keep talking like that.

With the amount of personal wealth these clowns accumulate while in office, postponing a paycheck would likely only affect the newly elected members.
