So in regards to the AZ elections...

The AZ Republic posted an article saying "who" and "what" propositions you should vote for (with the props, yes or no).

So we have one prop that is to increase the minimum wage in AZ, the AZ republic is saying to vote "no" for that one, but then it is saying vote "yes" for the prop that would increase the state representatives salary by $12,000!!!! Are you kidding me!!! Our state reps work 3-4 months a year, get 24K for those 3-4 months and then turn around and go back to their posh 75K (if not higher) jobs. Why would I give them a 12K raise? I can think of better ways to spend that type of money. Maybe on schools, students and god forbid teacher salaries
