There is probably a point among that partisan BS - maybe it would be useful to list politicians by their public salary and net worth. I’m sure most started as wealthy, since it’s kind of required to be politician at national level, but let’s see the numbers

There's your list.
I should have known Wikipedia would have it. Thanks.
I find it unexpected Mitt Romney is only sixth, but he made his money outside politics. Never thought a culture capitalist would be the “good guy”
