Yes, but don't you think that some sort of moral equivalence should
apply to those privileges?


Moral equivalence has nothing to do with it. The two are completely
unrelated (other than both are privileges).

So how do you tie together the concept of privilege and assign any
nuances to each grant of same? There has to be some sort of relative
comparison based upon its benefit to the grantee and the rest of the
electorate or the whole thing becomes a self-serving bureaucracy.


Who said anything about a relative comparison? Such a concept does not
exist in Congress!
