I don't know about the rest of you,  but normally when you are hired for a job and you don't perform said job to the standard's of said job, you are fired.  Now we all know our lawmakers in Juneau have not performed said job to the satisfaction of their employer, the Alaskan people.  With that being said,  I think a pay cut is a very generous compromise oposed to losing the job. They chose to run for that job and knew what it entails so I think it's only fair that the pay should reflect the performance.
