    Wonder why we do it?

    I like the idea of suits with their sponsors (George Ure at Urbansurvival has been promoting this for years)

    Yes - with inside trading legal for our glowing congress, they are free to make tons of money from all the killing they can con our servicemen and Blackwater/xe/??? into doing.

    I'm not a fan of Congress, but we have to be fair. Kerry "earned" his money by marrying rich. Issa was rich before he ran for Congress, as were many of them. I'm not giving them a free pass, but the same personalities that earn money in the private sector are attracted to politics.

    Considering they earn a salary about 5 times the national average, we would expect them to have higher net worth. Once you get past the basic "mortgage, food, transportation" expenses, the disposable income left for investment adds up quickly.

    We should ensure that our congress is not for sale; I don't think it is near as bad as portrayed in the media.
