| chocoloco said: Since the Iconograph I was trying to paste in would not work I can only paste a link to it. http://www.totallyoffbeat.com/congress-is-richer-than-you-infographic/ My main problem with Congress is they are so rich they do not understand the people they represent. Also as the iconograph shows congress is already so rich they do not need to be paid. They are suppossed to be public servents so I say they should be working as volunteers for our country. So I ask you VGchartz what do you think about this issue. |
I also hear, if you move out into the ocean, or to either of the polar ice caps, or a nation that has broken down into civil war, the costs of government there is zero. Doesn't mean that your quality of life will end up being better either.
My problem with your comment is that you fail to grasp the scale of the economy, why there is deficits we are running, and also that there are actual costs for doing things. There ARE issues that should be addressed, but who do you exactly think would go to congress if there was no money to cover living expenses or even running offices? Forget Mr. Smith going to Washington. So, how exactly does not paying someone, and having them do the job out of their own money (meaning they are rich) causes them to understand how the little guy lives? Even the little guy gets paid to work. If you are doing work and not getting paid, well that is another issue.
