Pink-slip Congress.............from Rico

Congress does a lousy job at EVERYTHING they do...except bilking the taxpayer, and conning the public into electing and re-electing them.
- If you wonder why they show such disregard, disdain, and unconcealed disrespect for the people they are supposedly working for...you and I, Sparky...it's because the public is stupid enough to vote for them!

Congress votes on its own pay and pay raises, cushy retirement plan, and golden health benefits.

I think we need to pink-slip the entire lot of them! If any employee of a business were this highly compensated for such a dismal level of performance, corruption, and demonstrated incompetence they would be fired immediately and replaced!

Throw the bums all out! ALL OF THEM!

We need to reinstate the "draft" ...only for 'public service' in Congress, not military service. Make this a W-2 job! Pay for performance, with the same benefits we all enjoy (like Social Security...and God forbid, socialized medicine if they have their way) and for only one term or "hitch" then they return to private life to face their neighbors. Hell's bell's! ANY of my neighbors, or yours chosen at random would do a better job than current members of Congress.
- No special priveleges or perks, and if there is any "pork" they can go to Leavenworth.
- Graft like cold-cash Jefferson (who had six-figures in bribe cash hidden in his freezer at home)? No special protection by peers in Congress, serious jail time with no parole.

"Selfless service" to country and countrymen has somehow mutated into "self-service" and "we the people" allowed it to happen. I for one consider too many of our public servants today to be self-serving, incompetent, crooks.
- Being a member of Congress should be a responsibility...not a free ride to easy street...and they need to be held accountable for solving problems constructively, not allowed kick-the-can of worms down the road so they can escape unscathed into a comfortible lifetime of retirement paid for by the taxpayer.

Congress today is a drive-by gang shooting of the American public!

No wonder they fear the 1st and 2nd Amendments! In another time they would have been hung or shot for the kind of behavior, shenanigens, and "airs" they assume is their proper entitlement.
