Here's an idea that was passed to me and I am passing it on ...
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. 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 we learned that the staffers of Congress family
members are exempt from having to pay back student loans. This will get
national attention if news networks will broadcast it.
When you add this to the below, just where
will all of it stop?
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 while 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."
