| At least we understand why people run for office. The work schedule and the pay are a dream job. |

| 7/27/2013 Congress and Senators should be hired by the public as private contractors , be paid a certain salary $50,000- no benefits, pay their own health insurance and when on vacation " NO PAY !, NO WORK , NO PAY !" I think a ballot should be put together for the next election 2014 let the public vote on it, if it's 100% approved by the public then Congress and Senate have to abide by the will of the people.... Cheers..Joe... |

| Why are they such an elite class of people? It's because they set their own hours and pay. Originally it was supposed to be representation by business people who spent time in Washington and then went back to their own jobs. |

| 7/27/2013 In the Constitution is states by the fore-fathers anyone can be a Congressman, a farmer, a teacher, a lawyer, etc. I think they've changed the rules over the last 100 years... Cheers.......Joe...... |
