We all know this but a current reminder…..Another reason why our federal
budget is where it is..
ABSOULTELY EVERYONE SHOULD READ THIS AND ACT.
No one has been able to explain to me why young men and women serve in
the U.S. Military for 20 years, risking their lives protecting freedom, and
only get 50% of their pay upon retirement.
While Politicians hold their political positions in the safe confines of
the capital, protected by these same men and women, and receive full pay
retirement after serving one term.
It just does not make any sense.
Monday on Fox news they learned that the staffers of Congress family
members are exempt from having to pay back student loans. This will get
national attention if other news networks will broadcast it. When you add this
to
the below, just where will all of it stop?
35 States file lawsuit against the Federal Government
Governors of 35 states have filed suit against the Federal Government for
imposing unlawful burdens upon them. It only takes 38 (of the 50) States
to
convene a Constitutional Convention.
This will take less than thirty seconds to read. If you agree, please
pass it on.
This is an idea that we should address.
For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of Congress.
Many citizens had no idea that members of Congress could retire with the
same pay after only one term, that they specifically exempted themselves
from many of the laws they have passed (such as being exempt from any fear of
prosecution for sexual harassment) while ordinary citizens must live under
those laws. The latest is to exempt themselves from the Healthcare
Reform... in all of its forms. Somehow, that doesn't seem logical. We do not
have an elite that is above the law. I truly don't care if they are Democrat,
Republican, Independent or whatever. The self-serving must stop.
If each person that receives this will forward it on to 20 people, in
three days, most people in The United States of America will have the
message.. This is one proposal that really should be passed around.
Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution: "Congress
shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does
not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress
shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that
does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States ."
You are one of my 20+
