When you pay people very little you get
1. The selfless (or the insane or crazy activists)
2. The rich
3. The corrupt
When you pay people a lot you also get
4. Competent hard working people who aren't necessarily selfless. (this is most people)
This group of people makes up the vast majority of people in the US, so why not have some of those people represent us.
