Might As Well Take It. Otherwise, It'll Only Go To Something Stupid Like Schools

Karen Bass is a California Assemblyperson and former speaker who is running for Congress. Since she launched her campaign, she hasn't shown up for the Assembly very much. But it hasn't stopped her from collecting her tax-free per diem payments for being an Assemblyhack. She's collected over $4,000 in payments for NOT working, on top of salary. You may think, oh, that's just a California thing, but I guarantee you that there are officials in your state or city or country who are making out like bandits by taking your money for doing nothing. They get away with it because nobody pays attention, and nobody gets outraged. But someone should. (Los Angeles Times)
