Officials act above ‘average person’

It makes me sad to know that city and state officials (with exceptions of an emergency) can drive through and avoid traffic camera citations.
Also, it is upsetting to my husband and me that some of our officials can raise their salaries without any thought to the average person. My husband and I are staying (or trying to) within limits of our fixed income. I guess the “average person” does not really have any input.
