Being a member of the legislature expected brave and dare to face any threat. Therefore not surprisingly, members of parliaments get big salaries and also get various facilities even though the voters (the people) a lot of live in difficult conditions.
Unfortunately, when has elected to be member of the legislature and after enjoying all the luxurious facilities provided by the state, many members of the legislature who forget with their electorate or in other words, they immediately separate themselves from their supporters such as bean leave its skin.
They forget that the support of voters still they need to support work and their performance. When the supporters / voters abandon them, their became fear and menanggis when bullied by their political opponents.

Well, it might inspire you to know that my state's (New Hampshire) legislative body does not receive a salary. Ours is the only state in my country with a volunteer legislature. They receive a small compensation fee of around 200 dollars, they receive a small mileage allowance to travel from their homes to the state capitol and they get a free pass through state toll gates. But other than that, they get nothing more than the privilege of serving the people of the state. They hold regular jobs back home, for example one representative from my district is the produce manager at the grocery store in my town, another from my district is a real estate agent...another is a the chief of police in a small town next to mine.
We call it "citizen legislature"
