And I'll agree to the salary cap for congresscritters on the proviso that it includes dorm style living complete with a cafeteria that's no better than your standard college cafeteria, and access while in DC to no more than a Nurse Practitioner (go home and see your own doctors on your own fucking dime, dipshits). And Air Force One needs to be...reserved only for out of country diplomatic trips. There are other, more cost effective options, which should still be reserved for work, not play.

(But donuts will become illegal under ACA, eventually). <br /><br />Also, all the farquads who decided to pick as "nonessential" stuff that will actually hurt people (like base commissaries) to close, when they could, I don't know, cut a few congressional perqs for the duration? They can FTFO. <br /><br />I hope the whole mess of them get booted out on their asses next election. I am now 100% behind strict term limits (like, of one term only, for anyone) because it seems like way too many people get into politics become power-driven bastards who are no better than the worst of the pre-Revolutionary French aristocrats. <br /><br />I also propose that future Congress/Representative/Presidential salaries have serious caps, like maybe at $75K a year. And cut back on the perqs. So that those people realize they are OUR servants, not the other way around.rickihttp://ranting-ricki.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
