Pay them? For what? For restricting our rights at every level? For telling us "change" so that we would not know they intend to impose socialism WITHOUT asking us in an election? For controlling our media? For spending us into mountains of debt and beyond? For tax,tax,tax,tax,tax,tax,tax,tax,taxing us and now telling us they need even more? Other states may want to consider a volunteer legislature. New Hampshire should lead, NOT FOLLOW, or New Hampshire will be thrown over the same cliff california is going over.
