Those six figure welfare queens don't know there until they go there. Most of them that have been there have forgotten there. Those who haven't forgotten there will be more than happy to serve for minimum wage for the privilege of service. If they're not, let them go home and be local politicians and business leaders. Many people these days seem to feel they'd be better off without a Congress. Let us give these offices forbearance and some motivation to stop being a national embarrassment. Should they fail, then perhaps we should write in the generic name of the original legislator. At best, perhaps the original legislator will show up. At worst, we get rid of the bums who make our form of government wholly inefficient and non-competitive. If Congress people cannot live on minimum wage or refuse to, then let them raise it and let every man and woman who wants a job have one. Expand the tax base so we can pay off all of those foreign poor with something other than ingratitude for their generosity.
