Before I retired, I usually didn't receive a pay raise unless my performance merited it! Now I live on a $1,027.60 monthly Social Security check while gasoline prices soar and oil companies make billions in additional profits; while Congress does absolutely nothing it promised to do when it was elected; while this insane, immoral, unjustifiable 'war' continues to put American taxpayers TRILLIONS of dollars in debt, and while our cost-of-living spirals upward our of control.
Yet, members of Congress believe they deserve $170,000 a year, claiming such salaries are necessary to keep "experienced" people in Congress. BULL!!!!!
Politics is the only profession where "experience" only makes you less accountable, more arrogant, more corrupt, and less attentive to your responsibilities.
It's time for Americans to exercise their Constitutional right (see the 2nd Amendment to our Bill of Rights) to "keep and bear arms" against an oppressive, tyrannical and do-nothing bunch of greedy bastards!!
