Dear John Roberts...

I understand that we actually do pay our federal officials too little. A federal judge should be making at least 200,000 a year. That being said, please don't expect us to meet private sector wages. It ain't gonna happen.

The fact that private ventures can pay so much more than public offices can afford is an indictment of the judicial system and the run away costs of lawsuits and lawyer fees.

When we as a country stop paying exorbitant fees to lawyers and realize they are highly over rated perhaps public officials won't be so underpaid.
