Politicians
have it easy. They are paid by your taxes, which they think will never run out.
They run for office promising to work for us. And we believe them. They pass
new laws and old laws; Such as Truth in Advertising. We have the Federal Trade
Commission, established in 1914 to prevent unfair competition. The greatest source of unfair competition is
the money in politics.
Local
Governments higher consulting firms. Why? Maybe they donate generously to the
in power party.
State governors, Senators, and Assemblies, have war chest choked with donations from sources well beyond borders. Our NJ Legislature works about 3 days per week on average.
U.S. Senate and Congress members have campaign sources that will provide enough money to finance campaigns that make working people envious of their life styles of travel, limousines and dinner accommodations. Elected office holders pass fund to fellow party members so they have supporting voices. All of this under the ‘Freedom of Speech” tenet.

How many
days do they work? Did they work long hours on the topics that are ballyhooed as
essential for you and a fair government. When laws, bills, or budgets are
worked on, who does the work? Oh, they have staffs.

“The House of Representatives has averaged 138 "legislative days" a year since 2001, according to records kept by the Library of Congress. That's about one day of work every three days, or fewer than three days a week. The Senate, on the other hand, was in session an average of 162 days a year over the same time period.”

Their salaries are three times the average household.
They
recently arm waved a budget top put off their efforts until September 2017. A budget
that provided support to organizations that have questionable reasons for
existing.
